Ah. I should have caught this: When running in foreground it's setting permissions differently on the socket then when it's running background: 0 srwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 0 Oct 1 14:27 /var/spool/MIMEDefang/clamd.sock vs 0 srwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 0 Oct 1 14:31 /var/spool/MIMEDefang/clamd.sock Probably shouldn't be running it as root anyway, but this isn't expected behavior, correct? -- Kelsey Cummings - [EMAIL PROTECTED] sonic.net, inc.
