Please note that any multistring values must be put into quotation marks. AVGSCAN Command The avgscan binary is intended to perform various on-demand tests via avgd daemon. Its performance is comprehensively controlled by the command line parameters. All scans are run multi-thread and independent, therefore it is possible to run more than one scan at a time; however scanning performance will not be increased this way.

It is HIGHLY recommended that shared memory is enabled on the system, especially for server installation.
