Hi,

in squid.conf you can block URL's with the AccessControlLists like this:

acl rule1 dstdomain anydomain.com acl rule2 dst 1.2.3.4

http_access deny rule1 http_access deny rule2

Now "anydomain.com" and the ip (it's useful to put in the ip of the domain here :)) "1.2.3.4" are denied. If the clients cannot use http without squid everything should be fine with this..(for me it works good)

Bye.

u may also try regex rules in your squid.conf file.. this is good if u know exaclty what u need to block.. such as cmd.exe or .eml files that have viruses... however, the more regexes you have, the more CPU power each line will consume.. but u can get off well enough with a thousand or so on a good squid box.. --- Ray Leach wrote: > Hi

Yes, try squidguard. It comes with pre built filter lists.

Hi folks,

is there any working filtering-software for Squid, which stops the LAN from fetching URLs with pornographic and/or securityrisk-relevant sites (maybe Warez and especially virus-containing sites) ? If not, maybe there is any good filtering-software for the clients (running W2k). The problem is, that I have no budget for this :-( God damn the ignorant bosses... So I need a free software.

Is there any ?

thx. Crest

squidguard has a pretty good blacklist, you can easily add to it. Commercial products will not tell you what they block (i.e. give a list, you can of course query sites to see if they are blocked). The value of squidguard is that it is free (nice) and you can easily examine the list, and unlike commercial ones tends not to go overboard (like blocking complete university medical subdomains because they discuss BREAST cancer and the like.

Okay, thanks for the hints towards squidguard. Took a first look at it and it sounds quite interesting. Does someone know how usable the blacklist used by squidguard is ?
