[squid-users] Squid is eating up my hard drive space.

Hello,

my internet connection has been down for the past four days.
i sure missed the group.

i have a small problem. i noticed that my hard drive is
running out of space. Now this is what i have:

Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 11827756 5220456 6006472 47% /
/dev/sda2 798508 27448 730496 4% /boot
none 256632 0 256632 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda5 3154588 2648484 345860 89% /var

i don't know why i decided to install in seperate partitions
like this but i think it was recommended in an article i read.

my problem is that my access log is on /var which is almost
out of space.

i have various logs of access.log in my log. see them listed below.

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 20 16:35 access1.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 squid squid 6944238 Nov 3 16:39 access.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 squid squid 11971779 Nov 2 04:03 access.log.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 squid squid 12356802 Oct 26 04:02 access.log.2.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 squid squid 14609550 Oct 19 04:02 access.log.3.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 squid squid 8675025 Oct 12 04:02 access.log.4.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 squid squid 5850483 Oct 5 04:02 access.log.5.gz.

my question is that can i safely delete the "access.log.*.gz" files files?
what's the implication of doing so. i should let u know that i use
SARG report.

is there a suggested neater way without manually having to delete access logs at
intervals. something like a cyclic logging.

i would really appreciate ur response.

Thank you.
Taiwo.
