[squid-users] Keeping & archiving access.log

Hi everyone,
Incredibly dumb question, I'm almost embarrassed asking it.

My access.log only seems to store a day's worth of proxy traffic data.
Do I just need to add a squid3 -k rotate task to my crontab?

Also, when creating the VM to run Squid, I sized the disk to hold about
a month's worth of log data before it gets pulled off and archived by
our file server.

So given the fact that I fill up a logfile in about a day and want to
save that much info, I should set logfile_rotate to something like 35,
right? Are there any other config changes I need to make?

What I'm describing probably sounds *very* unusual, but so are the
requirements I've been given for this project :)

Thanks!
Jack
