Hi all,
in our company we have the orer to monitor the usage of web-ressource apart from the company business (users must not use ebay, p**n-sites, etc.). But we are not allowded to save all accessed ressources for every user. So I plan to confogure to squid to - use authentication - write an access log that contains informationabout the user and the ressource, that has been accesed Then I plan to create a script to anonymize the user information within the access.log (substitute each named user with a different random number) and store these anonymized access-log to the disk. I want squid to write the original access log to a pipe and my script to read from this pipe so the non-anonymized information don't get written to the disk. But until know I didn't find an option to make squid write to a network pipe. I can create a filesystem-pipe on the disk, but if my anonymizing script collapses, squid gets confused, sometimes create the logfile as normal file and then my script gets confused. - Confusing, isnīt it ;-) So my question is: ----------------------------- How can I make squid write access.log information to a network pipe? I didn't find any option so far. Thanx a lot Dirk |
