Read the ML-History , you will find some restartscripts for clamd.
make a cronjob */1 * * * * for it.

can snmp access local unix sockets from external? and what would it do?
I think its not a good solution if you need to restart it anyway :)
max. 1 minute later clamd would be restartet anyway ( we run our cronscript
*/1 ).

Hi,
I found in the manpage docs some commands to send to clamd like PING.
Question is now, HOW ?
Directly to the port or throu the socket ( in which case the how is a how^2
:) ).
We discovered 2 typical crash situations with clamd and build a detection
script
which restarts clamd wenn needed..
