Except that then it will have been loaded and this information will have been entered in the log. Clamd only reloads the database when it has some work to do, clamdscan -V being "some work" obviously. You might ask the developers to change the database reloaded message to include the version number, as long as that doesn't break anything I don't see why this should not be done. -- Brian Morrison bdm at fenrir dot org dot uk GnuPG key ID DE32E5C5 - http://wwwkeys.uk.pgp.net/pgpnet/wwwkeys.html _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
