Carefully and completely follow the instructions here
http://wiki.contribs.org/Dansguardian

You need to install the rpm packages using yum
yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-dansguardian

and then run the configuration steps (at minimum you need to do the following)
config setprop squid TransparentPort 8080
config setprop squid Transparent yes
config setprop dansguardian portblocking yes
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot

then you need to edit and modify the various dansguardian configuration files to suit your server domain details and your local user filtering needs. All the details are in the Howto so read it carefully and completely. Tip: configuration information is at the start of each dansguardian conf file, so edit and read them one by one for useful usage info.

As Stefano says, you need to be much more specific when you ask your questions. So far you have just asked the equivalent of "my car is not working, please help me fix it", which would be impossible for anyone to accurately answer.
Please spend some time reading this document for a better understanding of how to ask for help and submit your problems or bugs

If your question is really about your earlier post re blocking https access, then dansguardian in a default install configuration, will not do that, as you have been advised. Other system wide approaches need to be taken to achieve that. One of the google searches indicates to block port 443 access for your whole server and then unblock particular site access requirements eg server manager & webmail  (probably best done in the firewall masq code using custom templates).
Please search before asking, an answer may already exist.
