My tired brain has only just digested the above paragraph - my guess
would be that the clamav user doesn't have permissions to write to
$MYHOME so can't create the socket?
My socket is located at /var/run/clamav/clamd and the /var/run/clamav
dir is owned by clamav:clamav with 755 perms. The clamav user is also a
member of the amavis group.
