I thought that SquidGuard and DansGuardian did much the same thing. AFAIK you can use DansGuardian in front of Varnish, if that's what you want to do. You can do some content filtering with Varnish but it's mainly about fast caching using RAM and I would imagine that DansGuardian would slow it down; also, I believe there's been no development in it for a few years. There are other content filtering tools but I don't know what your use case is. As a reverse proxy Varnish was just a suggestion and there are other alternatives. You can use Nginx as a reverse caching proxy but Varnish caches better. If you are interested in alternatives to Squid then your favourite search engine is your friend. Richard
