Unless you have some way to limit the total number of connections, threads, file size, size of pattern files, and size of archives you scan I'd say you're going to be frustrated squeezing this functionality into that class of machine. On a bad virus day clamd including all its LWP's can get pretty big. I'd be real tempted to farm out this function to a capable server via tcp/ip connections. dp _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
