If you want that clamAV scans your entire HD, edit cron (I use Debian GNU/Linux so I edited my /etc/crontab file). Maybe you want ClamAV do this at 1:00 a.m., every day: 00 1 * * * root mkdir /tmp/virus ; clamscan -ri --log=/var/log/clamscan.log --move=/tmp/virus / Hopefully, this could help you. -- Andrés González Cantú [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
