[ANNOUNCE] new contrib for web filtering

<< < (4/5) > >>

Daniel B.:
You cannot filter https URL, because it's encrypted, squid doesn't see the full URL. But you can deny complete domain name. Just add minecraft.net to the blacklist, and manually configure your client to use the proxy (IP of your SME Servver, port 3128). When a proxy is manually configured for HTTPS, the browser asks squid to tunnel the traffic, so, even if squid cannot see the full URL, it can see the domain name, and deny it if it's blacklisted.

Regards, Daniel

Hi Daniel

I have loaded this contrib on several servers and it works like a charm. Today i am loading on another and it just will not work. It doesn't block any thing. Even if i put the domain in the blacklist.

Simple example.

all the categories are ticked and i have sex.com in the blacklist, all the ip and gateway settings are correct, and still i can view the site. all the computers on the network can view the site and other sites that should be blocked.

SME server v8, fully up to date, reboot, reconfigured done twice

Do you have any idea as to what might be the problem.

thanks
John




Daniel B.:
You should take a look at the log file /var/log/squidGuard/squidGuard.log
