Log file rotation is done automatically using logrotate. The configuration file for the Squid logfiles is /etc/logrotate.d/squid. It contains information when and how to rotate the following files: * /var/log/squid/cache.log * /var/log/squid/access.log * /var/log/squid/store.log By default, they are rotated depending on their size. If you have configured any other log files (or modified the names), just include them here. A description of the syntax is available in the man page of logrotate. logrotate is run via a cron job daily (have a look at /etc/cron.daily/logrotate) Regards, Peter -- Peter Albrecht, Novell Training Services, peter.albrecht@xxxxxxxxxx PLEASE NOTE: THE ABOVE MESSAGE WAS RECEIVED FROM THE INTERNET.
