There are at least 2, partially related with each other, solutions. 1) You can configure your syslog daemon (syslogd, syslog-ng, whatever you use) to _not_ write to the console messages from ClamAV. I.e., exclude the ClamAV's facility (LOG_LOCAL6 by default, but may be changed with LogFacility in clamd.conf). or 2) You can configure your syslog daemon to write to the console only messages which exceed some priority (e.g. "crit"). -- Tomasz Papszun SysAdm @ TP S.A.
