Ouch, pointing LocalSocket to /usr/sbin is not a good idea.

I have removed all of clamav/clamd and reinstalled the rpms and clamd was
put in /usr/bin, but /etc/clamd.conf shows LocalSocket /tmp/clamd Is this
correct?
Yes. The socket is not the program, it is a connector, _created by_ the
program. /tmp or /var/run are common places for it.
Yes, you seem to be confusing the binary program /usr/bin/clamd with the
socket file which is created by clamd when it starts up. With the
clamd.conf setting you had originally:
>>>> LocalSocket /usr/sbin
You are attempting to overwrite the clamd executable with the socket. I
cant even imagine what results this would produce.
