Rodrigo,
kk...for the last days, when I had a few mins, I kept testing different
things w/this find stuff:
kk this was/is the find following the paths I originally used w/new
mods:
find / -path /sys/bus/pci/drivers -prune -o -path /proc -prune -o -type
f -mtime -1 | xargs clamscan -l /var/log/clamav/clamscan-bu-daily.log
$clamexcludes -r --no-summary | cut -d: -f1
> /usr/local/bin/changedfilelog
---------------------------------
kk this performs pretty well now...avg time to run is about 3-4
minutes...and logging about 6-7000 files to be rsynced and also clamav
produces no "ERROR" or "FOUND" messages.
this is the find statement you kinda suggested using "-exec":
find / -type f -mtime -1 -exec clamscan -l /var/log/clamav/clamscan-
bu-daily.log $clamexcludes -r --no-summary "{}" \; | cut -d: -f1
> /usr/local/bin/changedfilelog
although I did enjoy playing w/this as I had never any experience w/the
"-exec" command...well, it produced about the same amt of files to send
to rsync w/no clamscan errors that would stop it but it took approx 1 hr
to complete.
I am msging bout this just FYI and out of respect that you did indeed
try to help solve this problem...and, of course, if others might find
this of any use.
also, it seems that no matter what I tried I cannot get find to stop
looking in /proc lol
oh well at least I have the statement to a state where it produces no
errors to block the back up for taking place.
thx for the comments
