As squid.conf is kept in /etc/squid and not in /etc, checking the directory in /etc won't tell you anything useful. If /etc/squid/squid.conf.rpmnew exists and has a newer date than /etc/squid/squid.conf, then you can compare those files to see what options have changed in the newer version of squid. You can then make any adjustments necessary in /etc/squid/squid.conf to make it work again. For example, you may discover that option "foo" is now called option "bar". Or perhaps "foo" now requires a ",1" after it. And so on. The most likely cause of failure, especially if squid refuses to start after an update, is that one of the options in /etc/squid/squid.conf has changed and needs to be fixed. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
