Thanks. I checked permissions and all seemed well. The problem was in the squid.conf file I used squidGuard -d..... which meant all my output went to squid log files not squidGuard's logs. I noticed the date stamp on the squidGuard.log file never changed. I would never have looked here but for Rick suggesting I check if squidGuard.log was working. Thanks again.

That's where squidGuard would complain if it had something to complain about. I've always manually created my destination group log files (with touch) and then set ownership and permissions to be the same as squidGuard.log (assuming your squidGuard.log is working properly). Does your logdir + /porn.log = the right place? I put the full path in my logfile statement: logfile /usr/local/squidGuard/log/porn.log But if your logdir is properly set it should work as you have it. I don't see anything else that could be causing the problem. Check your squidGuard.log; I'd bet your answer is there. Rick
