Craig,

Look at the logfile. Had not done that as of late:) Here is what I have in the
log:

# tail -f /usr/local/squidGuard/log/squidGuard.log
2001-08-09 11:56:44 [21368] squidGuard 1.1.4 started (997372604.497)
2001-08-09 11:56:44 [21368] squidGuard ready for requests (997372604.512)
2001-08-09 11:56:44 [21368] squidGuard stopped (997372604.583)
2001-08-09 11:59:11 [21375] init domainlist
/usr/local/squidGuard/db/blacklists/porn/domains
2001-08-09 11:59:11 [21375] loading dbfile
/usr/local/squidGuard/db/blacklists/porn/domains.db
2001-08-09 11:59:11 [21375] init urllist
/usr/local/squidGuard/db/blacklists/porn/urls
2001-08-09 11:59:11 [21375] loading dbfile
/usr/local/squidGuard/db/blacklists/porn/urls.db
2001-08-09 11:59:11 [21375] squidGuard 1.1.4 started (997372751.508)
2001-08-09 11:59:11 [21375] squidGuard ready for requests (997372751.523)
2001-08-09 11:59:11 [21375] squidGuard stopped (997372751.556)

Then I tried somesufting to new sites, nothing is ever appended to the log
file. How do I go about checking to see if it is in emergency mode?
