Robert,

I did an install on a 10.4 server and had no problem and clamd 0.95.1 is running. Check your logs

cat /var/log/freshclam.log

or if you have installed socat use:

(echo "VERSION"; sleep 1;) | /usr/local/bin/socat - /tmp/clamd 2>/dev/null

If you don't see 0.95.1 Did you restart?

Remember your new clam is at

/usr/local/bin so to run stuff you need to

/usr/local/bin/clamdscan

etc.

Tom

0.95.1

Before my previous post I had attempted this tutorial 3 times, each one seeded to run without a problem until the final steps.

sudo /bin/launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.clamav.freshclam.plist
NO ERROR

sudo /bin/launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/net.clamav.freshclam.plist
NO ERROR

sudo /bin/launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.amavis.amavisd.plist
"no such process"

sudo /bin/launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.amavis.amavisd.plist
"nothing found to load"

I am not sure how to check the what version is running but CLamXav claims 0.94.2 regardless of the install or remove process.
