Your configuration line should read: cache_dir ufs /usr/local/squid/var/cache 100 16 256 or: cache_dir aufs /usr/local/squid/var/cache 100 16 256 or possibly: cache_dir diskd /usr/local/squid/var/cache 100 16 256 HTH, Neil. -- Neil Hillard neil.hillard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx AgustaWestland http://www.whl.co.uk/ Disclaimer: This message does not necessarily reflect the views of Westland Helicopters Ltd.
