Have a look at your /var/log/messages file - this log file should shed some light on what is happening.  

Refer to the FAQ if you need assistance logging into your e-smith server and gateway to do this.  Once logged in you can view the file with the command:

   less /var/log/messages

Keep us posted,

Paul

this literally repeates itself for like 10 minutes.  
at which point i hit the reset switch.  
there are no furthur log entries that mention squid, or suggest errors.

Squid is known not to shut down if it has any active connections. If you squid logs (in /var/log/squid) don't tell you what is going on, then logging in as root and doing "netstat --tcp" will show you all active TCP net connections.

>anyways squid hangs on every reboot...
i had a problem with the file ownerships of squid...
maybe rpm -e squid and reinstall

i made a web panel to run squid -k reconfigure (and squid restart)
as the web panel is using squid, is the above advice the explanation for the weird results,
can i get around this, apart from telnet and manually running the command.
