The only feature that Clamd has relating to this is the AllowSupplementaryGroups option. With this option enabled clamd will get group access permissions for each group the clamd user is a member of in /etc/group. e.g, If clamd is set to run as the user 'clamav', and you want it to accesss files belonging to the group 'myfiles', you'd have something like this entry in /etc/group: myfiles:x:600:clamav and make your files group readable (and directories at least group r-x) The only other way is to run an instance of clamd as the user. -trog ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
