Hi Edouard,
If you are unsure how it works then it is best to try it out on a stand
alone set-up that is not in use by other users.
Set up a clean system with samba and clamav and use you own host to
connect to it so that no other users are involved. You can then try
various things without risk of upsetting other users.
It is never a good thing to install new software that you are not
familiar with on a live system without first trying it out on a test
system.
Regards
Mark Fortescue

Hello again,
I read the docs from the links, but may you please help me to understand
what 'on access' scanning will do / can do ?
I installed clamav on my centos 7 box, but not yet start the clamav
service.
I have set in /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf
ScanOnAccess yes
OnAccessIncludePath /home/usertest
When I will start the clamav servce :
Does clamav will scan only /home/usertest ?
What will happen if clamav detect virus or malware already present in
/home/usertest ?
Will it quarantine the infected files ?
What will happen if the user try to copy an infected files in his
/home/usertest (via samba) ?
Will it be impossible for him to copy the infected files ?
I would like to reassure before start the clamav service, and avoid any
users complaints against me.
Best Regards,
EdG

What do you mean by "You could enable 'on access' scanning
on the CentOS box" ?
Is there a special to start clamav with mode 'on access' ?
What is this 'on acess' mode ?
