I am running Postfix 2.0.16 on FreeBSD 5.2.1 and used the FreeBSD port collection to install amavisd-new. I have this entry recurring in my amavisd log: WARN: all primary virus scanners failed, considering backups I looked on the clamav web site and found this statement: clamscan is enabled automatically if clamscan binary is found at amavisd-new starup time. clamd is activated by uncommenting its entry in the @av_scanners list, file /etc/amavisd.conf. I see in my amavisd.conf file that the 'Clam Antivirus-clamd' entry under @av_scanners is commented out, should it not be? clamscan is what amavisd is resorting to after the Warning, is this a bad thing? I also found searching the web that something may not be configured correctly. That seeing this waring means clamav is not running optimally. Can anyone offer any guidance? -- Robert
