Hello list, I have an internet cafe and use FreeBSD as a gateway/firewall doing DNS, Apache, PHP, MySQL and Squid. Everything works just great, except that i have an issue with Squid. This is not an always on machine, it is switched on in the morning and turned off in the evening. Sometimes (about 15%) Squid is not automatically started and therefore the local clients can't access the internet. When i try to run it manually, i get a message: Squid is already running, pid xxxx. So, i have to kill this pid and then start it manually. I think that somehow this pid has remained from the previous booting of the machine. Can someone recommend a startup script, which will check if the squid pid exists, then killing it and only after that starting squid? My shell is csh. %uname -a FreeBSD cyberzone.odessos.org 4.6-STABLE FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE #0: Wed Jun 26 20:54:49 EEST 2002 Murphy@cyberzone.odessos.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CYBERZONE i386 Thanx in advance.
