Topic: [ANNOUNCE] Revised Dansguardian HOWTO

[raem]

Dear All

I have dramatically revised the old Dansguardian Howto, to use the latest rpms from dungog.net, and included various db commands to configure port blocking and Auth login (as provided in the rpms).
Some details re configuration files, Auth login & Groups are limited at present.

Anyone like to review/check/test it out and suggest improvements/ provide feedback ? It will replace the old Howto after a short period of evaluation/correction/improvement.

Available here after the mirrors have synchronised
http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/rmitchell/smeserver/howto/dansguardian%20instal%20&%20configure%20HOWTO%20for%20sme%20server.v7.2.htm

It's been improved and added to the wiki, see a more recent v7.3 at
http://wiki.contribs.org/Dansguardian

Thanks
Ray

Hi,

Thanks for your great howto...
Here's a little fix:
After this command (or after deleting the Db entry)

config setprop dansguardian portblocking yes

You need to restart Masq:

Code: [Select]

expand-template /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq
service masq restart


Best regards,
Sylvain

I followed your how to, and am working through the "Configuring Dansguardian to use Auth-Login"

This line.

To enable any of the above setting changes you must follow the command with:

expand-template /etc/squid/squid.conf svc -t /service/squid

I get:

Code: [Select]

Unknown option: t

2 separate commands maybe?

> 2 separate commands maybe?

A formatting problem in the wiki editor.
It should read

expand-template /etc/squid/squid.conf
svc -t /service/squid

Also instead of all being on one line, the previous commands re setting a auth type should also have read like this:

config setprop squid RequireAuth pam

or

config setprop squid RequireAuth nsca

or

config setprop squid RequireAuth ident

To disable Auth login

config delprop squid RequireAuth

To enable any of the above setting changes you must follow the command with:

expand-template /etc/squid/squid.conf

svc -t /service/squid

The wiki Dansguardian Howto is fixed now.
