I want to set up a second clam client on a different machine but syncing takes forever. I'd like to create a bootstrap file from the first client and import into the second one but I need some assistence.
After fixing the error messages about folder does not exist (datadir was set) and rpcpassword (told to me by clamd when clam-qt is not running) I'm left with the message "cannot connect to server".
Can someone tell me what the correct setup and command is for a bootstrap dump on the windows clam(-qt) client?

Stop your currently-running client. Archive the entire CLAMS datadir. Restart the client. Copy the archived complete datadir to the 2nd m/c, unarchive so that the datadir is where you want it, delete wallet.dat (2nd client will automatically create a new empty wallet.dat) then start your 2nd client. It should sync up straight away.

That's odd, that was the first thing I tried and it didn't work. Tried it again now and it works like a charm.

Thanks, Graham. It probably just needed a magic kickstart from a legendary...
