I suggest using the "clamdscan --fdpass" entry instead of mucking with
the system users/groups. This is now the upstream default, but hasn't
made it into a release yet:

That's simpler, slightly more secure, and doesn't require you to
remember what user/group hacking you did if you move to another box.
