In spite of what the documentation says, squidGuard 1.2.0 requires version 3.29 of the Berkeley DB (available here: http://www.sleepycat.com/download/patchlogs.shtml You can stay with DB 2.7.7 and run squidGuard from the text files. SquidGuard will simply rebuild the B-trees from the text files each time it is started. Once the B-trees are built and loaded into memory, squidGuard performance is the same, with or without the db files. You might want to use that approach to do enough testing to know if squidGuard does what you need. If so, you'll definitely want to move to db 3.2.9, creating the db files makes a tremendous difference in squidGuard's startup time. If you decide to upgrade, the following checklist has been verified on Red Hat: - - - - - db-3.2.9 upgrade checklist - - - - - <Download db-3.2.9 from here:> <http://www.sleepycat.com/update/snapshot/db-3.2.9.tar.gz> <Copy db-3.2.9.tar.gz to /usr/local/src> 'tar zxvf db-3.2.9.tar.gz' <Download the two patches for 3.2.9 from here:> <http://www.sleepycat.com/update/3.2.9/patch.3.2.9.html> <Copy patch.3.2.9.1 to /usr/local/src/db-3.2.9> <Copy patch.3.2.9.2 to /usr/local/src/db-3.2.9> 'cd db-3.2.9' <'pwd' should show /usr/local/src/db-3.2.9> 'patch -p0 < patch.3.2.9.1' 'patch -p0 < patch.3.2.9.2' 'cd build_unix' '../dist/configure' 'make' 'make install' 'cd ../..'
