You're probably running 'aufs' as the squid storage system (it's defined after 'cache_dir' in squid.conf). That starts up multiple threads to service the requests. What you're seeing are not processes but threads of one process. It's a deficiancy of the "ps" command that they are shown as multiple processes. If for some reason you still want to get rid of that change 'cache_dir aufs ...' to 'cache_dir ufs ...' in squid.conf This is all documented in the default squid.conf that comes with squid. Note that I'm talking about squid 2.4 here Mike. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
