I wasnt sure it had something to do with the libmaps i used but i 
wondered it might be so. The --debug option didnt reveal any info at all, 
other then i already had. In the example libmap.conf they had a lib 
setting 
for apache so i figured this might be important for clam as well.
Maybe the program is linked to some libs during compile time, but at 
running time is uses other libs? I wonder why i seem to be the only one 
who is running into trouble like this. Big difference with OpenBSD is that 
FreeBSD 5 does threading and supports SMP, which is applicable for the 
machine i run clam on. Not that this answer is sensefull, but i wondered 
if i am the only one experiencing trouble with clamd.
Bye,

Mipam.
