NetMAXFAQ: After the nightly log truncation, my proxy caching logging stops.

Routing / Fire Wall / Proxy Cache :
After the nightly log truncation, my proxy caching logging stops.

Applies to: NetMAX FireWall and Professional version 3.x
address-suppressed

There is a problem in the L2.2Pv3.x version of NetMAX FireWall/Professional.

When the log truncation rotates the squid proxy caching server's logs, the logging is not restarted with the correct configuration file.

The work around is to edit the /usr/netmax/bin/truncsyslog.sh file.

Edit the line that reads:

/usr/netmax/bin/squid -k rotate

So that it reads:

/usr/netmax/bin/squid -k rotate -f /etc/proxycache.conf

After saving the changes to this file, you must restart the proxy server. The easiest way to do this may be to reboot your NetMAX.
