Remote to sendmail? Or remote to clamd? Or both?

I presume by "that server" you mean the server running clamav-milter

I presume by "primary server" you mean the server running clamd, though
I don't understand what you mean by you "did the same thing"? Why would
you do the same on both machines? Surely one runs clamd and one
runs clamav-milter?

By "machineb" do you mean the same as "primary server" above? Or the
same as "that server"?

Sorry, but I can't figure out what you're trying to do and what you've
tried to set up.

The following scenarios are possible:
1) sendmail, clamav-milter and clamd all on one machine
2) sendmail and clamav-milter on one machine, clamd on another machine
3) sendmail on one machine, clamav-milter and clamd on another machine
4) sendmail, clamav-milter and clamd all on separate machines
5) sendmail and clamav-milter on one machine, clamd running on multiple
machines load balanced
6) sendmail and clamav-milter on separate machines, clamd running on
multiple machines load balanced, which may include the same machines.

Please be very specific about what you're trying to achieve. I guess
it's either scenario 2 or scenario 3?
