I never said anything about manually forcing a reload of the data base. I am inquiring as to why clamav no longer seems to be checking and reloading the signature files on its own. The clamd.log shows an entry "Self checking every 1800 seconds"; therefore I am sure that the clamd daemon is aware of that setting. For whatever reason, it does not appear to be observing it though. I am not sure, but I believe the older versions of clamav did not have this problem. At least I do not remember it. -- Gerard _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
