Mmm, does it really work in a virtual machine? It fails for me as a normal user. It does work as root, however. This is apparently because clamav creates the local socket with umask 0777; I guess nobody tried that on GNU/Hurd: with the hurdish way of creating the socket, the pflocal translator has to open the file, and thus needs permissions on it. When run as root, this is not a problem, but a normal user will have the issue. So this seems again like a corner case not supported by the hurdish libc. On the technical side, what fails is the __ifsock_getsockaddr call. Indeed, since the node is created as 0000, the ifsock translators tells glibc that it doesn't have any right. The port to the translator was gotten through a __file_name_lookup_under. Isn't there a way to get a port to the translator directly from the node port on which the translator is running, instead of looking up the name? Samuel
