RE: [squid-users] fyi

Thank you very much Simon.
I have installed webmin and checked it out. It really is what I need.
I also found a module :
Trend (still have to check it out) Interscan
Squid Logfile analysis
Squidguard

This in combination with perl, really will make a difference.

Kind Regards,
