Is that where your problem lies? I mean, what is taking most of the CPU? Is it actually clamd? You're not running SpamAssassin are you? That is normally the largest loader in a typical Qmail-Scanner environment. If you are sure it is clamd, then yes - read the documentation for clamAV - as support for reading files over TCP/IP is supported - so you could do what you want. But you have to realise that means there is a fair amount of extra I/O required on your currently overloaded system in order to send the file over the network - so ensure the "clamd server" in on the same 100M/Gb switch to minimize network latency effects/etc. -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
