I'm assuming you are using RedHat. You didn't say. Look at the script /etc/init.d/squid There you will see the various sections for stop, start, restart, etc. Add your own section, "condrestart" or something like that, and throw your commands in there. Of course, the next time the rpm gets updated, you may lose this, and it does require you know some basic shell scripting. ========================= Scott Mace Security Administrator Travelcenters of America 440-808-4318 mace.scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================= "Brad Taylor" <btaylor@xxxxxxxxxxxx> 03/22/2006 12:24 PM To <squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> cc Subject Restarting Squid I use "service squid restart" to restart squid. I'd like to be able to switch conf files when restarting sometimes. I know squid -f filename.conf would work but I'd like to use the "service squid restart" method. Brad
