Clamd is notified by freshclam of the update to the database, it reloads it when it is next asked to scan something. I have a fairly lightly loaded mail server here, it is not unusual to see several minutes or even longer elapse between the freshclam database updated message and the clamd database reloaded message. It was either Trog or Tomasz who pointed this out when I asked a few months ago, I had wondered what was happening too until it was explained to me. -- Brian Morrison bdm at fenrir dot org dot uk GnuPG key ID DE32E5C5 - http://wwwkeys.uk.pgp.net/pgpnet/wwwkeys.html _______________________________________________ http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users
