I guess I kind of jumped the gun on this one, chalk it up to the late-night message posting... While it is an older linux distro with the init startup, I simply moved ClamAV to near the end of the boot process... problem solved. I noticed some people made that recommendation too. _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
