Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to configure squid so that it does
not write the URL to access.log. All I want to know is who was browsing the
web from which computer and when (date, client ip, and authname). This is to
comply with personal privacy and information policies and laws.

Hello Mike Ellis,


In squid-2.6, you can customize the access log format by using logformat directive in squid.conf file.

logformat squid %ts.%03tu %6tr %>a %Ss/%03Hs %<st %rm %ru %un %Sh/%<A %mt

%ru is Request URL.

If remove the format code (%ru) from the logformat direcive, the requested URL will not write into access.log.

See the custom_log_format directive and the access_log directive. (2.6)

web from which computer and when (date, client ip, and authname). This is to

I suspect that one could edit the source and recompile, but this is a little
outside my comfort zone. If this is what is required, could someone provide
me with some direction for where to start?

Thanks,
