Title: Uninstall Dansguardian and Squid Logs
Post by: shawnbishop on August 02, 2010, 07:24:35 PM
Good Day

I installed Dansguardian as per how to..after about an hour of using it, (large organization) of 500 users, the internet browsing had groundd to a halt..I remove the dansguardian contribs as per

#yum remove dansguardian

It then remove the dependencies as well

The Squid is now running , but nothing is happening in the /var/log/squid/access.log file?

After uninstalling dansguardian, how do I get back to a default Squid Proxy Server?

Cheers

As it says very clearly in the wiki article:

"To return Transparent Proxy port to default value and to disable portblocking and to enable the Transparent proxy (which is the sme default)
config setprop squid TransparentPort 3128
config setprop squid Transparent yes
config delprop dansguardian portblocking
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot

Note:
If you disable the Transparent Proxy feature of SME Server, Dansguardian can be bypassed at will by your users. You should keep the Transparent Proxy enabled (configured as above) for filtering to work."

I would also suggest you report a bug regarding your initial problem that you suspect is with Dansguardian.
Also you do not need to uninstall Dansguardian, you can just tell your system not to use it as per the above commands.
