Yeah this work around will not work for us as we will only be blocking internet 
for our guest computers. The  employee computers need full access. 

 

Hopefully this is worked out.

And I think that's a very frequent use of the proxy/filter; I can see many 
places I would implement it that way too.  Just not exactly this time. ;)

        AJ,

         

        I currently have enabled and transparent so the clients don't even know 
it is there until they access something they are not suppose to.

        That's interesting.  Why would that matter?  The proxy settings on the 
client explicitly direct traffic to 8080 (or whatever I set it to).

         

        And related, is that the functionality I'm trying to achieve is 
"optional use of proxy", such that a client-PC can use the proxy if he/she 
wants to, or go direct via 80 to the www.  So I'm very interested as to _why_ 
that configuration then works, but as a consequence, it's not a suitable 
solution for me, personally.

         

        I say it's a bug and you've found a workaround for some organizations.

         

        Thanks very much for the feedback.

                AJ,

                 

                I can get the content filter working if i deny www access on 
port 80 in the outgoing firewall. This forces users to go through the proxy. 
You might want to try this on 2.2.x.

                 

                Regards,

                 

                Eric.

                AFAIK, no one yet has come forward to say they've successfully 
gotten it working with 2.2.x.  (That's not to say people HAVE gotten it 
working, but no one has reported it working in the forum.)

                        So this is a known bug?  That the content filter does 
not work?

                        Yes, I confirmed that dansguardian and squid are 
running and listening on the right ports.  I also reviewed the conf files in 
the /etc/dansguardian directory.  They look fine, and when I change the 
properties, they're reflected there.

                         

                        Like I said, the blacklist is also enforced by 
dansguardian, and that works every time.

                                Are the gui settings making it into the 
DansGuardian config files, and in the right format? Any errors in the logs? 

                                 

                                From the website: " DansGuardian is a filtering 
pass-through that sits between the client browser and the Squid proxy. It 
listens on port 8080 and connects to squid on port 3128. So you must have no 
other daemon running already using port 8080."

                                 

                                I haven't tried the newer releases on efw, so I 
don't know what version of DansGuardian its using...

                                 

                                This site has some excellent steps for setting 
it up, so might help in trouble-shooting:
