[squid-users] Block skype
Hi guys, Is it possible block skype using acl header in squid? I don't like put in my squid.conf the configuration bellow because will block some sites with IP configuration. acl numeric_IPs urlpath_regex ^[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+ acl connect method CONNECT http_access deny connect numeric_IPs all Any ideas? Thanks Marcos

Its not a good idea to let them through. Lobby the site people to setup their DNS properly. Amos
Re: [squid-users] Block skype
ufdbGuard can block Skype. ufdbGuard is a free URL redirector which works with Squid. Blocking Skype is based on SSL connection verification and since Skype using port 443 but has no SSL handshake, the connection is blocked when the option enforce-https-official-certificate is set ON. Note that Squid already makes port 80 unusable for Skype and your firewall must block direct connections to other Skype nodes. -Marcus Amos Jeffries wrote: Hi guys, Is it possible block skype using acl header in squid?

[squid-users] block Skype with Squid
Hi there! I'm interesting in how to block skype with squid. I found in the net some how-to and i followed it, but no result: acl block_skype_IPs urlpath_regex ^[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+ acl connect method CONNECT http_access deny connect block_skype_IPs all After that i was still able to use skype. Just for test, i wrote in browser address bar https://196.34.23.4 , i don'n know what this ip is,but anyway, the connection wasn't rejected by squid, after while connection failed with Connection time out The log file says: CONNECT 196.34.23.4:443 HTTP/1.0 503 0 TCP_MISS:DIRECT instead of TCP_DENIED Where I wrong?

You likely don't need all here. 2. Try url_regex instead of urlpath_regex. Note that I don't use Skype (and never will be) so I can't test it. Christoph
