That's the point. There's only on client (me) accessing this proxy... very strange..... and I have never seen squid make this kind of things....
ps -axf gives me:

Hello, I have an strange problem here. I Have : SQUID1 -> Dansguardian -> SQUID2
On the same machine, SQUID1 and SQUID2 are 2 different process, with different squid.conf files.
I start them perfectly, butwhen i access my proxy the first time, SQUID2 multiplies +- 20 times.
When I type a "ps ax |grep squid", I have 19 process there !!!!
This never happened with me, and since I am using a squid.conf file modified from SQUID1, that does not multily...
With it, I cannot kill the first process, that the rest still run.
May be somthing with dansguardian ????????
Only way I can think of to check whether this is an 'issue' with DG or Squid2 is to maybe setup a client PC to access your Debian box through Squid2 and not through Squid1>DG>Squid2. With a client directly connecting to the net via Squid2 do you still get the same number of processes?
I'm also wondering whether this is not necessarily wrong? Doesn't squid spawn child processes? In which case you'd expect to see multiple instances running. I do have this setup running on a test PC at home which is under very light use and running that command now shows only 3 processes running. I guess the heavier the usage, themore processes will be running.

I use Debian woddy , Squid 2.5, DG 2.7.1-4.
Thanks...
