Deleting proxy log files?
 

Hi all,

I have a ClearOS firewall installed on one of my UNIX machines and would like to delete all the logs associated with all the users activities (visiting websites, proxy, etc.) over the past years and would like to clear the files so it doesn't contain any proxy data.

Will the following commands take care of it or I should be doing something else as well? Thanks in advance

1) cd /var/log

2) rm -rf boot.log.1 boot.log.2 boot.log.3 boot.log.4 compliance.1 compliance.2 compliance.3 compliance.4 cron.1 cron.2 cron.3 cron.4 maillog.1 maillog.2 maillog.3 maillog.4 messages.1 messages.2 messages.3 messages.4 rpmpkgs.1 rpmpkgs.2 rpmpkgs.3 rpmpkgs.4 secure.1 secure.2 secure.3 secure.4 snortsam.1 snortsam.2 snortsam.3 snortsam.4 spooler.1 spooler.2 spooler.3 spooler.4 system.1 system.2 system.3 system.4 syswatch.1 syswatch.2 syswatch.3 syswatch.4 webconfig.1 webconfig.2 webconfig.3 webconfig.4

3) echo > /var/log/messages

4) echo > /var/log/maillog

5) cd /var/log/squid

6) rm -rf access.log.1.gz access.log.2.gz access.log.3.gz access.log.4.gz access.log.5.gz adzapper.log.1 adzapper.log.2 adzapper.log.3 adzapper.log.4 cache.log.1.gz cache.log.2.gz cach.log.3.gz cache.log.4.gz cache.log.5.gz store.log.1.gz store.log.2.gz store.log.3.gz store.log.4.gz store.log.5.gz

7) >/var/log/squid/access.log

8) >/var/log/squid/adzapper.log

9) >/var/log/squid/cache.log

10) >/var/log/squid/store.log

Thanks

The default directory is /var/log. if someone or you have not changed the location for sometimes.

Thanks for your reply. These are all the files found under the /var/log directory. This is a ClearOS firewall, so Which ones should I be cleaning up? Thanks in advance

Anyone? I would really appreciate it.
