That would be a very bad idea. The address and socket are how local clam and other applications communicate with clamd. They have nothing at all to do with ftp. But yes, you could do this provided you disabled your ftp server. You are better off to use port 3310. The IP is less important - either will work. dp _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
