There's some confusion here. There need to be TWO sockets. One is for clamd. The other is for clamav-milter. sendmail.mc needs to point to the clamav-milter socket. clamav-milter needs to produce this socket for sendmail, and also know where the clamd socket is. It works like this: sendmail -> clamav-milter.sock clamav-milter -> clamd.sock clamd scans and passes the result back to clamav-milter clamav-milter tells sendmail what to do sendmail.mc should have INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/milter.sock, F=T, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl /etc/clamav.conf (or clamd.conf for 8.x) should have LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock start clamd as /usr/local/sbin/clamd start clamav-milter as /usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter -Cfq /var/run/clamav/milter.sock FIRST start clamd, SECOND start clamav-milter, FINALLY start sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED] 805.964.4554 x902 Hispanic Business Inc./HireDiversity.com Software Engineer perl -e"map{y/a-z/l-za-k/;print}shift" "Jjhi pcdiwtg Ptga wprztg," _______________________________________________ http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users
