The main squid is only one process. Squid also starts some external processes, like unlinkd. For DNS lookup, squid starts yet more processes. You can control the number of DNS processes with the dns_children directive in /etc/squid.conf. You cannot get rid of unlinkd. If you are using reidrectors or authentication, these will also spawn shild processes. You can control them in squid.conf. -jwb -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
