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.
