Hi,

 

Clamscan doesn’t rely on clamd, it’s just a standalone client.

To access clamd you’ll have to connect by TCP or socket.

You can lookup in your logs how many virus signatures you’ve available, or just run a freshclam yourself, you’ll see it then as well.

Hi again,

Sorry
 for all the questions, but I'm still trying to get familiar with how clamav works.

Is clamscan the client portion, which connects to clamd? Or is clamscan a scanner by itself that doesn't rely on clamd?

Seems to me clamscan runs fine without clamd running. So I'm guessing clamscan is self-sufficient and doesn't rely on clamd.

If that's the case, then what is the client program for clamd? Is it clamuko? I didn't quite understand.

How can I get clamav's statistics, I've seen postings of the number of viruses scanned historically...

Thanks
Ricardo
