[clamav-users] clamscan detects, but clamd doesn't

[Dave McMurtrie]

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I didn't know clamdscan existed.  Indeed, that seems to work also:

[root at andrew-mx-t01 phish]# clamdscan ./phish_test.txt 
./phish_test.txt: Heuristics.Phishing.URL.Blacklisted FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Infected files: 1
Time: 0.017 sec (0 m 0 s)


Is there a way to configure clamd to do debug-level logging like you can do with clamscan?

Thanks!

Dave

Hi Dave,

I am wondering what happens if you use clamdscan on your phish_test file?
