/etc/clamd.conf is the old location for the config file. With the flexibility of systemd allowing multiple daemons running, I think the packager changed things to use /etc/clam.d/scan.conf but didn't catch this change for clamdscan.On Wed, 2012-09-19 at 10:47 +0100, Arthur Dent wrote:"What tells it that it is a "scan" service? That bit of the puzzle seems to be missing..." Whatever is the parameter after the @ and before the dot becomes %i in the service file. Look at the service file: [Unit] Description = clamd scanner (%i) daemon After = syslog.target nss-lookup.target network.target [Service] Type = simple ExecStart = /usr/sbin/clamd -c /etc/clamd.d/%i.conf --nofork=yes Restart = on-failure PrivateTmp = true so clamd@scan.service invokes clamd with the scan.conf file as it's configuration file. This way you can have multiple clamd services each using a different config file. Just create another config file in /etc/clamd.d/my_config.conf and: ln -s /lib/systemd/system/clamd@.service /etc/systemd/system/clamd@my_config.service You should have the /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf I think: [root@moses shorewall]# rpm -qf /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf clamav-scanner-0.97.5-1700.fc17.noarchThank you Bill for a helpful and, more importantly, informative reply. I think this will not only help me to solve my problem but, even better, help me to understand where I was going wrong. As before, I don't have access to the machine right now, so i will try when I get home to work through this and get it right. I will once again report back later...Well... Progress! Because I have done so much tinkering and editing of configs (and had previously even tried the script I mentioned earlier) I was unsure as to what should be where, so I blitzed every clam* package with yum erase, ran updatedb and then deleted any and all clam* files and directories still left. I also deleted the clam* users that had been created (including a "clamd user that I had created myself), and then reinstalled the lot. A quick edit of the freshclam configs and the /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf file and a call to systemctl enable clamd@scan.service and systemctl start clamd@scan.service and I am up and running! Thank you so much. All is not _quite_ perfect however. In calling clamdscan from my script (itself called from procmail) I get the error: ERROR: Can't parse clamd configuration file /etc/clamd.conf Note the config file and location. In order to get it to work (which it does), I need to declare clamdscan in my script as: "/bin/clamdscan -c/etc/clamd.d/scan.conf" So where does it default to /etc/clamd.conf ? I have grepped the whole of /etc/* and can't find a reference to this location, and there is no /etc/sysconfig/clamd as there used to be. I think this is the last remaining mystery. After I have solved this I will be a very happy bunny! Thank you again. Mark I also run a Mandriva mail server that uses procmail to deliver mail. Here is a snippet of my IMAP recipe: :0 VIRUS=| clamdscan --no-summary --stdout - | cut -d' ' -f2 - :0 * VIRUS ?? !^Can\'t { :0 * VIRUS ?? !^OK { :0 SUBJECT=| egrep '^Subject:' - | sed -e 's/Subject: //' - :0 fw | formail -i "Subject: [VIRUS: ${VIRUS}] ${SUBJECT}" -I "X-Clamav-Virus-Detected: Yes, ${VIRUS}" :0 $DEFAULT.SystemFolders.Infected/ } :0Efw | formail -b -f -t -I "X-Clamav-Virus-Detected: No" } To be honest, I don't remember what all the commands do except when it detects a spam email it puts it in a different directory ($DEFAULT.SystemFolders.Infected/). This Mandriva server uses /etc/clamd.conf. Bill |
