From what I remember on Ubuntu and Debian, when you install Dansguardian it also installs and configures Squid for you. You'd have to make some changes to the Dansguardian config file (I believe it's either /etc/dansguardian.conf or /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf) as you'll need to specify what to block (I believe there are free blocklists available which block various types of sites). With regards to moving the log files to another partition, I believe it is a simple config file change, but if you can't find anything, I'd say create an empty file where you want them to go and create a link in the /var/log folder to replace the original log files, then any logs should be saved to the new location. Hope this helps anyway. Ta, Rob -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
