Title: How do I tell clamd to ignore certain directories?
Post by: jahlewis on August 21, 2006, 11:57:45 PM

Any quick ideas on how I can tell clamd to ignore certain directories for the scheduled system scan?  

I see all the clamd.conf directives, but nothing there to indicate which directories to scan or ignore...

I also see a /etc/clamscan, with no corresponding templates file.

Thanks.

A search through the forums of 'virus scan exclude' or 'virus scan ignore' would find just this entry:
