You may get more relevant information on the clamav list, or even comp.mail.sendmail (since the question isn't FreeBSD specific). Actually, I'm fairly certain it's been discussed before, though not necessarily for clamav, on comp.mail.sendmail. > I have this configuration and this works: > > Sendmail SRV <-local domain socket-> clamav-milter <- tcp -> clamd > server > (server A) (server A) (server b) > > Or this is the correct one: > Sendmail SRV <-tcp-> clamav-milter <- tcp/domain socket -> clamd server > (server A) (server b) (server b) To some degree the answer is: either. It'll depend on the relative hardware specs, the network speed and the sizes of the emails. Try both and see what's faster, on average, for you. -- Rob | Oh my God! They killed init! You bastards!
