Hi, pherpas my problem is equal at problem descript in thread with subject "amavisd-new + clamAV", also on my mail server Same here I have:
> I discovered that amavisd-new is proceeding the virus scanning by using > clamscan, which takes 2 process by capacity 60%-90% of CPU, > meanwhile it takes 3 minutes to scan one email I use maia-1.0.2 with amavisd-new and in clamd.conf and freshclam.conf I have enable parameter: AllowSupplementaryGroups yes ..in amavisd.conf I have: @av_scanners = ( ### http://www.clamav.net/ ####['ClamAV-clamd', #### \&ask_daemon, ["CONTSCAN {}\n", "/var/run/clamav/clamd.sock"], #### qr/\bOK$/, qr/\bFOUND$/, #### qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/ ], ); # See https://secure.renaissoft.com/maia/wiki/VirusScannerConfig # for more virus scanner definitions. @av_scanners_backup = ( ### http://www.clamav.net/ - backs up clamd or Mail::ClamAV ['ClamAV-clamscan', 'clamscan', "--stdout --disable-summary -r --tempdir=$TEMPBASE {}", [0], [1], qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/ ], ); ..therefore I don't use av_scanners (with clamd) but only av_scanners_backup with clamscan and: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ps -ax|grep clam Warning: bad syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See /usr/share/doc/procps-3.2.7/FAQ 25675 ? Ss 0:32 /usr/local/sbin/clamd 26603 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/local/bin/freshclam -d 26694 ? R 0:24 /usr/local/bin/clamscan --stdout --disable-summary -r --tempdir=/var/amavisd/tmp /var/amavisd/tmp/amavis-20070705T103642-26517/parts ..now for resolve my problem (and for to use use clamdscan instead) I must enable primary av_scanner ?
