Clamd

NAME

clamdscan - scan files and directories against viruses using Clam AntiVirus Daemon

SYNOPSIS

clamdscan [options] [file/directory]

DESCRIPTION

clamdscan is a simple clamd client which may be used as a clamscan replacement. clamdscan accepts all the options implemented in clamscan but most of them will be ignored because its scanning abilities only depend on clamd. clamdscan is a part of the Clam AntiVirus package.

OPTIONS

-h, --help Output help information and exit. -V, --version Print version number and exit. -v, --verbose Be verbose. This option causes clamscan to print many additional informations. --quiet Be quiet - only output error messages. --stdout Write all messages (except for libclamav output) to the standard output (stdout). --config-file=FILE Read clamd settings from FILE. -l FILE, --log=FILE Save the scan report to FILE. --remove Remove infected files. Be careful. --move=DIRECTORY Move infected files into DIRECTORY. --no-summary Do not display summary at the end of scanning.

EXAMPLES

(0) To scan a one file: clamdscan file (1) To scan a current working directory: clamdscan (2) To scan all files in /home: clamdscan /home

RETURN CODES

0 : No virus found. 1 : Virus(es) found. 2 : An error occured.
