I am following the faq on serving the cvd files from a local server so that 
each client doesn’t have to download them from the clamav servers? I have 
edited /etc/clamd.conf to say DatabaseDirectory /srv/www/htdocs/<folder> and 
also edited the freshclam.conf file to say the same thing. When i try to run 
freshclam, i get this error:
ERROR: getfile: Can't create new file ./clamav-somelonghexnumber in 
/srv/www/htdocs/<folder>
Hint: The database directory must be writable for UID 65 or GID 107
ERROR: Can't download main.cvd from database.clamav.net
LibClamAV Error: Database directory: /srv/www/htdocs<folder> not locked

How do i make the folder writable for UID 65 or GID 107? And how do i lock the 
/srv/www/htdocs/<folder> folder so only clamav and its hosts that will be 
downloading the DB can get to it? Thanks for any help

Chris
