Thanks. I tried a "squid -k check" and it told me nothing was running. I thought that odd Seems I could not make a valid ppp connection, due to ISP issues. In the past, when I started up, but did not have an active connection, all seemed to have worked. Perhaps the other times the connection was made before I loaded squid, or, it was made so quickly that it was unseen to me. joea >>> Fernando Sclavo<fsclavo@xxxxxxxxx> 4/28/05 3:56:12 PM >>> Hi Joe, you see duplicated pid because one is for the parent and one for the children.
