Hello Vincent!

I don't have any entries in /etc/services for port 3310.

 VC> My clamd conf lines that relate are :

I have LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd.socket on both of my Linux systems.

 VC> FixStaleSocket yes

I have TCPAddr localhost here.

 VC> as for the test :

 VC> ssh localhost -p 3310
 VC> ssh: connect to host localhost port 3310: Connection refused

I used telnet to connect to mine.  It connects, and then disconnects with an 
UNKNOWN COMMAND message when I hit ENTER.

 VC> ssh 127.0.0.0 -p 3310
 VC> ssh: connect to host 127.0.0.0 port 3310: Connection refused

This should be 127.0.0.1 I'm thinking.

 VC> Log /var/log/clamd.log shows it is running but with these .

 VC> Using systemadm shows that these are running :
 VC> clamav-daemon.service
 VC> clamav-daemon.socket
 VC> clamav-freshclam.service

 VC> Doing a ps aux | grep clam   produces :

 VC> clamav   1770582  0.0  0.0 103752 14976 ?        SLs  Jul07   0:09
 VC> /usr/bin/freshclam -d --foreground=true
 VC> clamav   1770616  0.0  8.3 1576280 1353088 ?     Ssl  Jul07   4:50
 VC> /usr/sbin/clamd --foreground=true

My startup script for clamav does not use the --foreground switch for either 
clamd or freshclam.

 VC> less /etc/clamd.conf

This was just you viewing your clamd.conf ...

Try removing --foreground=true from your command lines in the startup scripts, 
and then see if telnet will connect to port 3310.
