Shouldn't have anything *in* it. It should be a socket. The clamd process will attack to it and listen for commands. Look at your /etc/clamd.conf file, and look for the LocalSocket definition. On my system, its in /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock which is: > # ls -l /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock > srw-rw-rw-. 1 clamav clamav 0 Nov 29 15:11 /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock Notice the leading "s" in the ls output indicating that it is a socket. clamav clients (including freshclam) will open this socket when they wish to write (send) commands to the clamd server.... > Sincerely yours, > Rob G.
