# squidview(1)

program to monitor your squid's access.log

## NAME

squidview - program to monitor your squid's access.log

## SYNOPSIS

**squidview**

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **squidview** application. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has a brief online help (Press "h").

**squidview** is a ncurses-based application which allows you to view and monitor your squid's access.log in a very comfortable way. Additionally you can create reports and statistics.

## NOTES

**Squidview** is configured by the contents of the directory ~/.squidview/.  On first execution it creates the necessary files. The Debian-version has been  modified to match the default log-path of Debian's  **squid** package  /var/log/squid/access.log). If you have the permission to read this file  (ie be in group proxy), squidview should work out of the box. If not, file a bug  against this package (squidview, obviously :-)).

## OPTIONS

This program ignores any command-line parameters.
