Restricting Web Access - NEWBIE!
« on: January 24, 2002, 10:29:45 PM »
Hi. Thanks for taking the time to read this. I've done a TON of research to get this far...but I'm stuck.

I've figured out how to edit, save, and expand my custom squid.conf file so that e-smith uses my changes, but they don't do anything.

I copied my default squid.conf into

/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/squid

and added the following:

acl allowclients src 192.168.0.19
http_access allow allowclients

I didn't put in the 'http_access deny all' because there was one already there. Then I expanded the custom template so that I can see my changes in /etc/squid/squid.conf.

I'm trying to restrict web access (but allow email) on all but a few of our company's computers. Do I need to take out all the other lines in squid.conf?

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.
