Re: Squid 2.0 PATCH 2 and cache dir's filling up.

So is this a question or a bug report? Have u tried setting your cache_dir
tag in your squid.conf and restart?

:Parabola

# TAG: cache_dir
# Usage:
#
# cache_dir Directory-Name Mbytes Level-1 Level2
#
# You can specify multiple cache_dir lines to spread the
# cache among different disk partitions.
#
# 'Directory' is a top-level directory where cache swap
# files will be stored. If you want to use an entire disk
# for caching, then this can be the mount-point directory.
# The directory must exist and be writable by the Squid
# process. Squid will NOT create this directory for you.
#
# If no 'cache_dir' lines are specified, the following
# default will be used: /usr/local/squid/cache.
#
# 'Mbytes' is the amount of disk space (MB) to use under this
# directory. The default is 100 MB. Change this to suit your
# configuration.
#
# 'Level-1' is the number of first-level subdirectories which
# will be created under the 'Directory'. The default is 16.
#
# 'Level-2' is the number of second-level subdirectories which
# will be created under each first-level directory. The default
# is 256.
#
#cache_dir /usr/local/squid/cache 100 16 256
