Hi Folks ¡!! The last week I configure an IPCOP 1.4.21 box ( Linux ipcop 2.4.36 #1 Tue Jul 22 13:13:24 GMT 2008 i686 pentium4 i386 GNU/Linux ) with Advproxy plug-in, which runs with squid 2.7STABLE9. The box is running fine, but I found a curious detail with the squid service: When I boot up the box the squid service runs, instead of two process ( parent and child ), 18 children process like this: root 4111 0.0 1.9 7880 4912 ? Ss 18:56 0:00 /usr/sbin/squid -D squid 4113 0.9 12.9 38920 32316 ? S 18:56 0:10 (squid) -D squid 4125 0.0 12.9 38920 32316 ? S 18:56 0:00 (squid) -D squid 4126 0.0 12.9 38920 32316 ?

S 18:56 0:00 (squid) -D It always run 18 process and doesn´t care if I restart manually, with the script, with -N option or wherever method I use to run. I never see this before. My other boxes running Slackware, Redhat, Ubuntu always run just two process. The main difference is I always compile the source tar ball, but in this case the plug-in module has a precompiled squid version ). Do you have any ideas why this happen ?? Thanks for your help !!!!
