clamdscan

NAME

clamdscan - scan files and directories for 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. It accepts all the options implemented in clamscan but most of them will be ignored because its scanning abilities only depend on clamd.

-V, --version

Print version number and exit.

-v, --verbose

Be verbose.

--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.

-m, --multiscan

Always use MULTISCAN instead of CONTSCAN.

--remove

Remove infected files. Be careful.

--move=DIRECTORY

Move infected files into DIRECTORY.

--no-summary

Do not display summary at the end of scanning.

clamdscan file
