Ownership or selinux problem?

Unfortunately no selinux on RSEL.  has to do, in part, with it being a port
to armv5, eventhough I run it on armv7.

I looked at the permissions and from /var/spool/amavisd it is owned by
amavis:amavis
Without selinux, permission errors are usually pretty straightforward
- that is, if something logs a 'permission denied', it means exactly
that.  I could be anywhere up the path, or the program accessing it
might not have the uid you expect, though.

It was permissions.  I had added clam to the amavis group:

gpasswd -a clam amavis

But not given the group permissions to the directory.  First did:

chmod g+rx /var/spool/amavisd/tmp

But was still getting the error so I went up a level:

chmod g+rx /var/spool/amavisd

and no longer getting the error.

I **AM** making good notes on all of this. Perhaps I will someday put them up in Centos docs...
