What is the differnece between clamscan and clamdscan Sorry for the questions but I am a newbie to clamav -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Daniel J McDonald Sent: Tuesday, January 03, 2006 10:11 AM To: ClamAV users ML Subject: RE: [Clamav-users] clamd.conf not recognizing TemporaryDirectory On Tue, 2006-01-03 at 10:06 -0500, Brian McDonald wrote: > You will have to explain what you mean by "HUP the process" kill -SHUP clamd In other words, clamd only reads clamd.conf at process start time, or when it receives the HUP signal. So, if clamdscan is causing activity in /tmp, and clamd has neither been restarted nor HUP'ed, then that is the most likely culprit. If it is clamscan, and not clamdscan, then there is an entirely different problem. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Odhiambo > Washington > Sent: Tuesday, January 03, 2006 10:04 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Clamav-users] clamd.conf not recognizing TemporaryDirectory > > > * On 03/01/06 09:57 -0500, Brian McDonald wrote: > > > > I am trying to change the temporary directory for clamav but the change is > > not working clamav is still writing to /tmp. > > > > My clamd.conf > > > > LogFile /var/log/clamav/clamd.log > > LogFileMaxSize 5M > > LogTime > > TemporaryDirectory /var/clamavtmp/tmp > > DatabaseDirectory /var/lib/clamav > > TCPAddr 127.0.0.1 > > TCPSocket 3310 > > User clamav > > DetectBrokenExecutables > > ArchiveBlockEncrypted > > > Did you HUP the process? > > > -Wash > > http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html > > -- > +======================================================================+ > |\ _,,,---,,_ | Odhiambo Washington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Zzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ | Wananchi Online Ltd. www.wananchi.com > |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-'| Tel: +254 20 313985-9 +254 20 313922 > '---''(_/--' `-'\_) | GSM: +254 722 743223 +254 733 744121 > +======================================================================+ > H.
