Rainer Link fixed the problems long time ago with samba-vscan 3.0.6b.

Thank you Rainer!


Jeremy, is it possible for you to add samba-vscan to the samba tree? The 
source of the last stable version you can find here (worked till Samba 
3.0.24):

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10590&package_id=29198&release_id=351414

The project site of OpenAntiVirus:

It would be nice, if we could use this really useful vfs module 
furthermore with Samba.
