<![CDATA[Squid and Squid Guard Logs]]>Hi,

May I know how to clear the log files of squid and squidguard? I am afraid it will get too big and takes up system space. Does pfSense automatically maintain squid and squidguard's log files for e.g. the last 30 days only?

Thanks.  ;D

Squidguard itself maintains 3 log files.

/var/squidGuard/log/block.log
/var/squidGuard/log/sg_configurator.log
/var/squidGuard/log/squidGuard.log

There is no setting in the GUI for days of number of kb in size.
Maybe "dvserg" can add this option into Squidguard gui/package.

If the maximum log file size is reached, does it archive the old one and create a new log file? If the disk space is almost full, will it be alert me or automatically delete the old archives?

Thanks  :D
