Re: [squid-users] Disk Space problem in a squid-proxy server

squid -k rotate
will rotate all .log files for you, you can delete the *.0 files afterwards.

Never delete files without knowing what you are doing ; deleting files
from under squid's nose will lead to unpredictable behaviour :)

You really should read the manuals, and especially the parts related to
logs files and cache_dir entries, to understand what you are doing.
