[clamav-users] Clamd vs clamscan

[Brad Scalio]

I've seen a lot of fodder on clamd vs clamscan, running 0.99 on RHEL6.7
exit/entry points ... While it's easy enough to use clamscan via cron, is
there any good stepwise SOP on getting clamd to work permission wise to
scan all filesystem?  I like the ability to have it all controlled via the
daemon, easier to enforce configurations via puppet, easier quick checking
and tweaking of conf, etc ... Apologies if I missed the page or doc, but
been googling for months to find a simple guide.

If clamscan is the preferred way, I'm fine with that, just not sure why
there's a daemon then?  Is it for on-access, more for other OS installs?

Thanks!
Brad
