I got a qmail + q-s + clamav system running pretty fine now.
During installation I came across the following issue:

q-s was installed using credentials of user qscand - as default.
clamav, using clamdscan daemon, was installed using credentials of user clamd - as default.

At first, my system was not able to scan files and I was seen in qmail logs the output of: qq temporary failure.
Then, I switched clamdscan to use qscand credential. It failed again to scan showing same error.
Then, I switched both q-s and clamdscan to use qmaild:nofiles credentials and everything went ok.

I intend not to touch my box now, because it is running pretty fine, but what the hell went wrong?

Why q-s uses qscand credentials by default anyway if I only can get it to work using qmaild rights?

Any input/comment will be much appreciated.

Regards.

P.S.
My system is a RH 7.3
q-s version is 1.23
clamav 0.75-1
I had perl-suidperl installed
My box has also all requirements for qmail, q-s, clamav etc.
