Cheers my man that is now working with some modifications.
I at first got the following message:- 
'which: no clamd in (/usr/local/bin:/bin://usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin)
This I remedied by moving into the first location.  My question is where does 
this path come from as it is not in any of the conf files, presumably PATH ?

The script clamctl came from a Debian based document, the only information I 
could get that gave pointers for idiots like me......


If you could put me right on the last questions I will be eternally grateful.

Once again thanks, and power to 'open source' it always delivers, including 
the community.
