      I was wondering if someone else could verify the weirdness I'm seeing.

      Currently, when I activate SquidGuard (squidGuard-squid3, latest Squid & squidGuard packages for pfSense 2.1.5) it nicely adds the following to the Squid integrations section in the proxy config:

      redirect_children 5;redirect_program /usr/pbi/squidguard-squid3-amd64/bin/squidGuard -c /usr/pbi/squidguard-squid3-amd64/etc/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf;redirector_bypass off;url_rewrite_children 5
      
      

      If I change "redirect_children 5" to "redirect_children 20", when Squid starts, it still only starts 5 redirect processes.  If I change the order of the command around, moving redirect_children to the end it starts 20 processes as expected:

      redirect_program /usr/pbi/squidguard-squid3-amd64/bin/squidGuard -c /usr/pbi/squidguard-squid3-amd64/etc/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf;redirector_bypass off;url_rewrite_children 5;redirect_children 20
      

      This would should be a pretty easy fix, but before I bug the maintainer, I wanted to see if it this was happening to everyone, or just me.

        its hard coded in the squidguard package.

        read the post and you'll get an idea how to manually get the files to your liking
