What version are you running? A number of people have reported this issue and it has resulted in scripts being written that check the status of clamd periodically and restart it. But, perhaps it's just me, but I don't quite understand why people are writing such scripts instead of spending their effort actually trying to fix the problem. So, instead of killing it, why aren't people attaching gdb to the running process and providing a backtrace? Has this been found to not work for some reason? -trog ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
