At the moment the manpage hasn't been updated yet. But the example clamav-milter.conf is well commented. See http://lurker.clamav.net/message/20081205.152347.a7d7c9ee.en.html for more details.

[Clamav-users] Mandriva 2009 and ClamAv
I'm working on updating my old Mandrake 10.1 system to Mandriva 2009, what a pain, anyway, using urpmi I installed 94.2. When trying to start it I got a 'command not found' and noticed that in /usr/bin there is no clamd file. There is a clamdscan and a freshclam which in fact is getting updates. Is there any reason why there would be no clamd executable included with a Mandriva package? There was always one when I rolled my own for 10.1.

I would have thought it should be located in the same folder as freshclam, I'm pretty sure on the old system it was in /usr/bin. I'm wondering now if I should just go ahead and roll one for 2009 to make sure I have everything. Clamd doesn't even shouw up on a list of services when chkconfig --list is run whereas freshclam does.

Thanks Chris Does that package come separate client and server distributions? I've lost track of all the ways all the different Linuxes deal with services vs client installations, but I have a recollection that some Linuxes need more than one RPM installed to get it all. You have all the client software, for exemple, but not the server software (clamd, and probably clamav-milter). dp ... just thinking out loud ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
Re: [Clamav-users] attempting to use clamav from svn...
Thanks for the suggestions. I've written a /usr/local/etc/clamav-milter.conf, which seems to be parsed ok, and am now starting clamav-milter with no parameters. I get the error ERROR: Failed to initiate streaming/fdpassing and the sender is being sent a tempfail. Where should I be looking to fix this? Do I need to be running clamd as well, and should this be using a separate socket to that used for sendmail??

I get the error ERROR: Failed to initiate streaming/fdpassing and the sender is being sent a tempfail. Where should I be looking to fix this? Do I need to be running clamd as well, I'm pretty sure that a dev said the new version of the milter (the SVN one) requires clamd to be running. The reason for this was that the having the old milter had a lot of duplicate code from clamd and was outdated. and should this be using a separate socket to that used for sendmail?? Um, if I understand you correctly, yes. clamav-milter wants to talk to clamd using a socket of some type. If clamd is running locally, then it'll be a named socket rather than a TCP socket. This socket would be different than the milter socket that sendmail uses to talk to the clamav-milter.
