hi, > vfs objects = recycle, vscand-clamav > vscan-clamav:config-file = /etc/samba/vscan-clamav.conf Is it the same as the real config? Once you defined vscand-clamav then gave the config option vscan-clamav. Beside that vfs objects should be vfs objects = vscan-clamav, recycle vscand-clamav != vscan-clamav and it's better to scan for viruses before you put it into the network "recycle bin". bye, Ago
