[clamav-users] Problem with ClamAV 0.98.4 - HAVP won't load CVD files

[Paul Kosinski]

Kare,

Thanks for the suggestion. I also had thought of using the clamd
socket interface, but won't do that unless there is no other way.

HAVP is running here on a minimal 2-core Athlon II (3.1 GHz) and HAVP
by itself comprises over 10 processes. Given this configuration, I
fear that using the socket interface instead of the direct libclamav
interface would reduce HTTP throughput noticeably.

Paul

P.S. Would the clamd socket allow HAVP to do the "cut through"
scanning that it does when "mandatory locking" is possible?
