I am taking a guess that this log is of no use.

Meanwhile, I have found 4 items from www.smallnetbuilder.com (Build your own utm with pfsense) that are a walk through of installing pfSense.
I am going to rip down my current installation and start over using their articles as guidance.
Please close this thread now.

Schucks… the glory of being a newbie...

Rgds.

@stanch:

Hi,
I am running pfSense 123 & the current packages, Squid & Squidguard.
For no apparent reason Squidguard stops filtering.
My installation is at home on a 50mb. cable connection (Virgin Media) and is primarily there to protect the grandchildren etc.
This problem makes this solution as useful as a chocolate teapot!
I have read on the forum of others who have experienced this, but I have not fully understood what the "fix" is.
Is there one?
Will a rebuild using the RC fix this?
If I can't find a fix soon I will have to try an alternative Firewall/UTM.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Any log exists?
