To my clamd startup script, I have added the following lines;

<text>

start_precmd=start_precmd

start_precmd()
{
       if [ -S "$clamd_socket" ]; then
       warn "Stale socket $clamd_socket removed."
       rm "$clamd_socket"
       fi
}

stop_postcmd=stop_postcmd

stop_postcmd()

</text>


and for the past 3hrs, I haven't seen any occurance of the clamd error at
all. I'll monitor it and keep you all posted of any developments.


Cheers,
Juki.
