I would like to know how I can remotely restart the clamd server... or actually kill all the processes.
It happens that clamd sometimes is not working correctly anymore, but I can still remotely access it and send commands. I am using clamd (running on Linux) to scan the mail server (running on Windows) remotely and it works great so far. Just sometimes, after I sent the "STREAM" command, I don't get back the "PORT" response. If this happens, all further requests send to clamd will fail. When I manually kill the clamd process (killproc clamd) and restart it (clamd) it is working great again. If it is possible to still access the clamd server remotely, could I send another command, like "KILL", in a case where "STREAM" doesn't give me any response in order to kill the processes? This would make it much easier for me to manage the clamd server. I only find out about this problem accidentally when I am checking the log files. That's not good, because my mail server won't check for any viruses during the time this happens. If it could be an automation, that would be nice. Or is there any other way I could do this?
