Hi there,

I discovered the problem I had was due to the use of the *Universal Naming

"\\xx-x411\clamav" and "D:\clamav" are the same, the behaviors are
different as shown below.

Well, nothing about Windows really surprises me any more. :/

... I wanted to use the UNC path because I want to share the database
across the servers. ...

I can see the sense in wanting to use a uniform way to describe the
locations of resources, but even if you have several servers accessing
the ClamAV database you will only want one of them to run freshclam so
the only thing you'll lose with the DOS-style paths is consistency in
the various pathnames.  Of course this will all be in explained in the
site documentation which you will produce. :)

Maybe this should get a mention in the ClamAV Bugzilla?
