Is there a way for clamscan and clamdscan to show the cofiguration they are using?
You haven't said what your system is nor how you installed ClamAV so I can't tell you what to look for on your own system but there is plenty of documentation for example at https://www.clamav.net/documents/configuration
I am having a different result if a scan the same file with clamscan and clamdscan.
That's not unlikely and it isn't a fault. They are different tools.
The error with clamdscan comes down to Heuristics.Limits.Exceeded FOUND bit not really saying what size is exceedded nor what size clamscan is using that is OK.
It's explained in the documentation. You'll need to set aside some time to spend with it because there's quite a lot of it. It's also worth your while to look through the archives of this mailing list. For example you could click on a few links at https://marc.info/?l=clamav-users&r=1&w=2 then browse the subject lines to see what looks interesting.
I want a way to make sure both clamscan and clamdscan are using the same values.
No, you want to understand what you're doing. The tools are different. They are configured, and they do things, in very different ways. The common, er, thread is that in the end they both use the same signature database, but clamscan is a stand-alone tool which does everything on its own, and clamdscan hands the bulk of the work to a daemon called clamd. There is another tool called clamav-milter which does that too. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ 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
