Re: Monitoring clamav

[Dimitri Yioulos]

Martin,

Thanks for your reply.  I certainly should have taken a closer look at 
clamd.conf; I would have seen the (disabled) pid directive.  This is probably 
a lesson in Linux 101, but how do I write the part of the directive to stop 
clamav if my way of doing it now is to kill the clamav process?

Thanks again.
