[ZendTo] Re: Large uploads not working on 64-bit Centos VM

/var/zendto/incoming.
This needs to be writable by the web server user, and scannable by clamd.

On a RedHat 6 box this should look like this:

[sysjkf at isol-zendto zendto]$ ls -al /var/zendto
total 2356
drwxrwxr-x.   6 root   apache    4096 Feb 24  2011 .
drwxr-xr-x.  24 root   root      4096 Feb 24  2011 ..
drwxr-xr-x. 275 apache apache   12288 Sep  5 17:59 dropoffs
drwxr-xr-x.   2 apache apache    4096 Sep  5 17:59 incoming
drwxr-xr-x.   2 apache apache    4096 Jul 20 22:09 rrd
-rw-rw-r--.   1 apache apache 2361233 Sep  5 21:16 zendto.log

On a Ubuntu box or a CentOS box the user and group of the files will be 
different, may be "www-data" or "httpd" instead of "apache". But the 
permissions should look like the above.
