Here's a quote from the INSTALL file

- McAfee uvscan
   McAfee/NAI is supported via mcDaemon, which is basically a wrapper for
   uvscan. mcDaemon will not be automatically compiled, so please
   step into nai/mcDaemon and type "make" (or "gmake" for BSD users).
   "make install" will install the binary, the config file for mcDaemon
   and the start-stop script (it's SUSE-like style).

   The following mcdaemon specific settings are available:

   mcdaemon ip = <IP> (default: 127.0.0.1)
   mcdaemon port = <port> (default: 8128)


   For starting mcdaemon see mcLoader.sh for details. Please keep
   in mind mcdaemon is just a proof-of-concept! By design, it's
   slow and not really reliable.


Keep in mind mcdaemon assumes "uvscan" is installed in /usr/local/bin
(could be a symlink, of course)
