UPDATE-SQUIDGUARD(1)					     SquidGuard documentation					      UPDATE-SQUIDGUARD(1)

NAME

       update-squidguard - Update script for SquidGuard.

SYNOPSIS

       update-squidguard

DESCRIPTION

       This script performs a database rebuild for any blacklists listed in the default Squidguard config file `/etc/squid/squidGuard.conf'.
       After rebuilding the databases it will reload Squid / Squid3 so that it will make use of the updated lists.

OPTIONS

       -v | --verbose
	   Show some more information and switch on progress bar when updating database.

       -c | --checkdb
	   Check Berkeley DB version and rebuild full database only if Berkeley DB version have changed. This option should be used after upgrade
	   of squidguard to reduce wasteful wait time.
