Hi! On a new server, the first clamd start took a while; after a few starts of freshclam, the database has finally been updated; now, the start of clamd is much quicker. Details can be seen in the appended log-messages.
Can it be, that the startup-issues that has been reported arise from nameserver or network problems at the clamav infrastructure?
