Thanks for the replies.


I recompiled Mimedefang (2.39) after compiling clamav and it recognized that clamav was there. I went into the clamav-milter directory and compiled clamav-milter. Do I need this? Is it possible to just run the clamav binary- not as a milter and have Mimedefang call it to scan the mailboxes?



Also, what is the difference between clamscan and clamd scan?


I see


I found the binary clamd and ran it.


Now ps -ef reports:


root 25709 1 0 10:24 ? 00:00:00 lt-clamd


netstat -a reports


unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 556180 /tmp/clamd


If I run clamscan or clamdscan on an infected (even a zip) file it reports the infection.



I edited /etc/mail/mimedefang-filter to have it look for clamd - but mimedefang complains:



Could not connect to clamd daemon at /var/spool/MIMEDefang/clamd.sock


How do I get the socket - there - the default is /tmp/clamd:

srwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            0 Sep  8 10:24 clamd


If I do so, will Mimedefang then call up clamd and scan messages, or do I need the milter entries in sendmail?


Also, where is the init.d script - I can not find it.

Thanks again.
