dccifd and dccm are clients. Servers are disabled by default.
Actually, if you install from source, both are disabled unless you
configure dcc to use them.

If you have only been using dccproc, you could gain a performance
advantage by enabling dccifd (spamassassin will use it instead of
dccproc if it is running). It is necessary to configure dcc_home so
spamassassin can find the socket. The init script for dcc should read
its configuration from dcc_conf. So, to get dccifd running, you
would set DCCIFD_ENABLE=on and reload the init script. An init script
'rcDCC' is supplied with the source if needed.

Personally, I install from source, and configure it with:
../configure --with-uid=amavis
I also make sure my amavisd-new user owns the dcc files:
chown -R amavis:amavis /var/dcc

And as I said earlier, you have to keep the log files under control,
and of course you have to make sure spamassassin can find and
r/w the socket.
