Ok. I've read the faq and followed the directions to a tee, but I still can't get qmail-scanner and clamdscan to talk.
The problem is that the messages in /var/spool/qmailscan/tmp/ are being written as uid root and gid root with only perms for the root user to access. What should the file perms be on the files in tmp/? Is this a umask problem? Umask is 0022.
System is gentoo, qmail/qmail-scanner installed as near to lwq as I can remember.
It sounds like qmail-scanner is running as root and not qscand like it should. What was your ./configure line for qmail-scanner? Did you specify --qs-user?
The following are the the permissions on everything in the qmailscan dir:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] qmailscan]# ls -al /var/spool/qmailscan/

/tmp (as well as everything else) should be owned by qscand. Clamav should also be running as user qscand which you can configure in /etc/clamd.conf. I dont really know the lwq install, but does it really expect you to run qmail-scanner as root? That just doesnt sound right.
