[Mimedefang] Fwd: Re: clamav vs clamd vs clamscan

[Cliff Hayes]

I tried your idea.
I updated the following in clamd.conf:
LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd.socket
PidFile /var/run/clamav/clamd.pid
User clamav

Now I get this error when starting clamd:
ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf
I am starting as root as instructed in clamd.conf
I have gotten that error before ... it usually means there is a user 
issue.  When I go back to running as root it knows to look in /etc/ for 
clamd.conf
