The advantage is that clamd can be configured to follow symlinks.
From 'man clamd.conf':
FollowDirectorySymlinks
Follow directory symlinks.
Default: disabled
FollowFileSymlinks
Follow regular file symlinks.
Default: disabled
MaxDirectoryRecursion NUMBER
Maximal depth directories are scanned at.
Default: 15
So I believe (I haven't verified that empirically) that after creating
in a directory of choice, symlinks to files to scan, there should be no
need to split the list of symlinks into smaller parts. Plain launching
clamdscan on that directory should be sufficient.
Okay, I didn't know about that. I assumed that since clamscan couldn't
do that, neither could clamd. Thanks.
