Help with MailScanner and remote clamd

[Kevin G. Chege]

Hi,

I have MailScanner installed and works ok with a locally available clamd
socket configuration. But when I try to use a remote Clamd socket (an IP
address of another jail on the system) with this configuration in
MailScanner.conf:

Virus Scanners = clamd

Clamd Port = 3310

Clamd Socket = 127.0.0.87

I get the following error:

MailScanner.conf says "Virus Scanners = clamd"

Found these virus scanners installed: clamd

===========================================================================

Filename Checks: Windows/DOS Executable (1 eicar.com)

Other Checks: Found 1 problems

Virus and Content Scanning: Starting

Clamd::ERROR:: UNKNOWN CLAMD RETURN ./lstat() failed: No such file or
directory. ERROR :: /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/16761

Virus Scanning: Clamd found 1 infections

Virus Scanning: Found 1 viruses

===========================================================================



I have checked and indeed "/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/16761" does not
exist.


On the machine with Clamd running on an IP and port, this is the message in
ClamAV log file:

WARNING: lstat() failed on: /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/16761



The permissions look ok to me since with a local Clamd, it is working well.
Could someone help with the appropriate config for MailScanner and a remote
Clam anitvirus?
