there is such an option in freshclam

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ freshclam --help | grep RELOAD
    --daemon-notify[=/path/clamav.conf] send RELOAD command to clamd

but it seems not to be working. all i know is that i had to restart
clamd manually. only then it started to detect new viruses. so my
question is: what is the status of that option? does it work?

imho 1h is way too long to wait for reload definitions in busy server so
i restart clamd every time new databases is downloaded.
