Hi,
I've been banging my head trying to figure this out on my own for the

Clamscan(1) - Linux man page Name. Clamscan - scan files and directories for viruses Synopsis. Clamscan options file/directory/- Description. Clamscan is a command line anti-virus scanner. ClamAV antivirus was initially designed as an email scanning gateway for Unix, but has since evolved into a robust free security solution for cross-platform devices like Windows and Mac. To this day, it remains one of the best antiviruses for Linux systems. By default, this tool doesn’t come prepackaged within the CentOS/RHEL repository.

better part of a day now. I'm running Amazon Linux, have got the
proper clamav packages installed to have the following stuff working.
* clamd is running
* clamscan runs from the command line
* clamdscan runs from the command line
However, clamdscan doesn't recursively crawl the file system, it only
seems to want to scan a single file.
Before i craft a 'find | xargs clamdscan' type of solution for this,
can I just get confirmation that recursive scanning with just
clamdscan is not possible?
I suspect that most people use clamdscan to do 'one off' scanning,

In my use case I want to leverage clamd, so that I can take advantage
of the SysLogging capabilities of clamd, but I'm looking for more of a
traditional daily 'scan the entire file system' solution.
