Greetings all,
Apologies if this is the incorrect forum.
I'm attempting to get clamscan running on a Mac OS X 10.4.5 server;
it runs fine unless I try to run with root (either through sudo, a
daemon that runs as root, or just logging in as root).
The error I get is ERROR: Can't get information about user
0. Verbose/debug options get me nowhere--this is the only message I get.
Clamscan version is ClamAV 0.87.1/685/Wed Jan 24 04:08:24 2005
I've googled for a couple of days, gone through all the official and
semi-official support sites, and found nothing matching this
description. Apple's documentation on Clam appears to be virtually
non-existent.
The goal is to get a third party application (which runs as a daemon
under the root account) to scan files. Since I get the same behavior
regardless of whether I'm using the app or just typing on the
terminal, I'm fairly certain it's not the third party app. I'm not
sure yet if I can configure the daemon to run as someone else, or if I should.
Is my root account setup just whacked, or is there anything I can do
to troubleshoot further? I don't have problems running anything else
as root...
