/var/run is a link to /run which is a tmpfs file system. Look in /etc/sysconfig/tmpfiles.d for a config file for clamav and see man tmpfiles.d to understand the file format.

It is sometimes (well, frequently) helpful to download an rpm package and look inside it to see all the files that will be installed and where. This is particularly true if you are using systemd for the first time.

Dear All,

I am having little trouble with configuring Clamav sever on centos 7 to run as 
different user, the mail problem for me is that the /var/run/clam.scan folder 
permission reverts back to its original permission and user name after reboot.

OS: centos 7 64bit

Selinux: enabled

Clamav: installed from epel repo

The user I am trying to run is “mail” and I tried to change the folder of 
/var/run/clam.scan to allow group users to read and write but after every 
restart it changes to default permission there by not allowing me to run the 
Clamav as different user.

User mail and clamscan are belong to each other group.

[root@backupemail run]# groups mail

mail : mail clamscan

[root@backupemail run]# groups clamscan

clamscan : clamscan mail

[root@backupemail run]# ls –lZ |grep clamd.scan

drwx--x---. clamscan clamscan system_u:object_r:antivirus_var_run_t:s0 
clamd.scan

if I change the permission by running chmod g+rw clamd.scan, the permission 
does not persist over reboot of the OS

if anyone can help/share some info It would highly appreciated.

With regard
Prabhu
