What, in particular, are you thinking of? If the first thing clamd does is drop priviledges, there is no logging before dropping priviledges. If the milter tries to log before dropping priviledges (say), it will be running as root and can write to the logfile. Or am I missing something? -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | Time sharing: The use of many people by | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | the computer. | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
