Hey guys, new member here, go easy on me.

I have two questions to which I didn't really find an answer on the page nor the archived lists.

1. What is clamd, what is its function relating to ClamAV and is it required for ClamAV to run? I have ClamAV running on one machine without clamd and all seems well. On another, qmail-scanner gives me an error as soon as clamd dies. Both use qmail-scanner and both scripts use clamdscanner.

2. clamd dies on me on signal 11 (core dump). Is this a common issue? If so, is there a fix? Regardless of the last question, does anyone have a solid script that looks for clamd and restarts it if it is down? Tried doing my own but it seems flakey. A system call in perl to /usr/local/sbin/clamd doesn't bring it back up.

Thanks for any info.
