There shouldn't even be syadmin. But then? Show me an RFC that states that no un-managed box can be in the 'net: I'll show you one which prohibits the presence of sysadmins in the world... > > If nobody had to turn off freshclam, why clamscan had to stop > working? > > Did clamscan stop working, or only clamd? I don't know it for sure. I know clamd stopped working, but I guess also clamscan, since in the troubled installs I heard they use amavisd-new. Maybe I'm wrong, but the amavisd-new's default config has clamd as primary scanner and clamscan as backup one. > > In this thread I'm seeing a lot of people blaming the sysadmin.

Since nobody is perfect, instead of pointing out the other's mistake (if any) sysadmins should co-operate.
