 cat > /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamav << "EOF"
 #!/bin/sh
 # Begin $rc_base/init.d/clamav
 
 . /etc/sysconfig/rc
 . ${rc_functions}
 
 case "${1}" in
         start)
                 boot_mesg "Starting ClamAV Daemon..."
                 loadproc /usr/sbin/clamd
                 ;;
 
         stop)
                 boot_mesg "Stopping ClamAV Daemon..."
                 killproc /usr/sbin/clamd
                 ;;
 
         restart)
                 ${0} stop
                 sleep 1

                 ;;

 chmod -v 754 /etc/rc.d/init.d/clamav

Link it into the runlevels:

 for link in /etc/rc.d/rc{{0,1,6}.d/K32,{2,3,4,5}.d/S18}clamav; do
