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:

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.
