I found that once I "fixed" the permissions on /var/run/ to be open to clamav, sendmail complained of "unsafe" writeable directories, and wouldn't start. So I do this in my start scripts:
# start the clamav milter: chmod 777 /var/run /usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter -bloq /var/run/clmilter.sock sleep 5 chmod 755 /var/run # -pat *-----------------------------------------------------------------------------* * Pat Masterson B38-01, Northrop Grumman, * Ham:KE2LJ * South Oyster Bay Rd.
