What are the permissions on /var/spool/virtual/thediscshop.com.au/abc ? clamd user needs read access to it. > srwxrwxrwx 1 clamav clamav 0 Dec 2 11:01 clamd > -rw-r----- 1 root root 707 Dec 2 11:01 clamd.log > -rw-rw---- 1 clamav clamav 5 Dec 2 11:01 clamd.pid On my system the log file is owned by the clamd user. Don't know why yours isn't. Are you running logrotate against the log file? If so you'll need to tell logrotate to chown the log file to clamav. > Running as user clamav (UID 505, GID 506) Especially considering that line. > after i run clamd QUIT all file remain with the addition of this to You mean, literally, "$ clamd QUIT"? That's not how to stop clamd. That starts another instance of clamd with the unrecognized argument "QUIT". The socket commands (QUIT) are not command-line arguments. You have to echo them to the socket. Try sending clamd a kill signal instead. -- Matthew.van.Eerde (at) hbinc.com 805.964.4554 x902 Hispanic Business Inc./HireDiversity.com Software Engineer _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
