Description Jim Faulkner 2005-03-23 17:02:58 UTC 
The Gentoo Samba3/CUPS/ClamAV Howto:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/quick-samba-howto.xml
says that you must run the clamd daemon in order to use clamav with samba.

However, according to the warning in the samba ebuild ( net-fs/samba/samba-3.0.10.ebuild line 56), samba doesn't use clamd when the the libclamav USE flag is enabled.... instead it loads the clamav libraries.

Perhaps the instructions should be to set START_CLAMD=no in /etc/conf.d/clamd instead of the opposite?

True. I've removed the libclamav USE flag for the installation in the guide (so that the guide uses the daemon) which is the lowest intruisive change :) I've also  made the installation of samba be "following the rules". 

Never do USE="foo bar" emerge bleh, always use
  echo "category/package foo bar" >> /etc/portage/package.use
  emerge package

Thanks for the intel. Document updated in CVS.
