There is no setting for this. You are running 0.95.3. The current version is 0.96.1. The program is simply warning you that you are not running the latest version. Upgrade to 0.96.1 and the message will go away. > > WARNING: Clamd was NOT notified: Can't find or parse configuration > file /path/to/clamd.conf > Neither could I.

A default clamd.conf should have been installed by the package. Where it goes depends on the package. Try this: $ rpm -q clamav --filesbypkg | grep conf If that doesn't give anything useful, try one of the other packages. The init script is dependent on the packager. If it doesn't exist, complain to whoever created the fedora package you are using. -- Bowie _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
