Re: squid log problem

In most modern linux distros there is logrotate cron job for automatic log rotation.
Do you see access.log.1, access.log.2 and so on?
If no, check root's mailbox for error reports.
By default there is weekly log rotation, you may change this by playing with /etc/logrotate.d/squid

man logrotate for more.

Re: squid log problem

If you are getting virus from client's try to analyse the requests with viralator and configure that with squid using
external_program tag on squid.conf file.

viraltor is over as,
http://viralator.loddington.com/


And try to block the particular client to access web via thorugh and make notification to that client.


Easy to suggest when don't know about the problem!
