Hi Avraham, 1. Please do not contact me direct, use the Mailing List.
I read the sentences you wrote to me again, do you really want that squid logs the things that would go in access.log to your /var/log/syslog (default debian path), or do you just want to see what is written in the access.log. For Changing the location/ way that squid log the access entries read 2. , if not the default path of the access log is /usr/local/squid/var/logs/access.log. 2. As you could see what Yuri Voinov wrote > # ># udp To send each log line as text data to a UDP receiver. ># Place: The destination host name or IP and port. ># Place Format: //host:port ># ># tcp To send each log line as text data to a TCP receiver. ># Lines may be accumulated before sending (see buffered_logs). ># Place: The destination host name or IP and port. ># Place Format: //host:port ># ># Default: ># access_log daemon:/var/log/squid/access.log squid >#Default: ># access_log daemon:/var/log/squid/access.log squid These is snipped from the squid configuration documents on squid page (http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/access_log/). You could try ( I didn’t do it before) to use syslog as module and insert it in your squid.conf Best Regards Sebastian Von: Avraham Serour [mailto:tovm...@gmail.com] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 11.
