Topic: Internet access control by username and password (sme-squid)

[firstbishop]

Apologies - I posted this post in http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=26144.0 before realising the forum was locked.

Does anyone know if the sme-squid rpm has been updated for SME 7.0 and if so, where it can be found? I installed sme-upgppp-1.0.1.rpm successfully (which was necessary under 6.5 in order to install sme-squid) and then attempted to install sme-squid-1.0.2.rpm but got the following message:

Stopping squid: [FAILED]
error: %pre(sme-squid-1.0-2.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping sme-squid-1.0-2

This is such a useful contrib - I'd be grateful for any help to get it going on 7.0

Thanks, Mike.

If anyone is still needing this contrib, I'm not aware that it has been updated, but MasterSleepy has done a howto which achieves the same result (in fact for me a better result, because the users just use their login password without having to set each user up with an additional web access password).

Here is the link:

It is labelled as a Beta howto but works fine for me on SME 7.0

Thanks to MasterSleepy!
