[clamav] launchdaemon executes clamdscan several times when scanning
Hi, Back to the original purpose of launchd... I've installed clamav, 64bit, and wrote a LaunchDaemon to execute once a day at a certain time on a certain volume. However, when the LaunchDaemon executes, it seems to scan the volume several times. At first I though it was clamav but I then wrote a bash script that adds an entry to the log file, executes clamdscan and then adds another log entry. Any ideas would be appreciated. A.

Hi, Missing arguments are considered to be wildcard. You should add the "Minute" key and set it to "0" (or whatever you like). Regards, Thomas On Dec 14, 2009, at 12:20 PM, dev.admin@ntlworld.com wrote:
