Check out sarg <http://web.onda.com.br/orso/> - it doesn't quite do what you want, but it has a few scripts that could, potentially (I haven't tried them and can't verify that they work), if you set up authentication on the proxy, do something similar to what you want Basically, as sarg is compiling it's reports, you can specify that the names of anyone with more than X mbytes in the period you're looking at (passable to sarg as command line arguments, so you can specify, eg, last 24 hours, since 6am today, etc) is put into a file... You can then specify in squid.conf that usernames in this file are not allowed access to the cache... All that's required then is an hourly cronjob to update the list, or something similar.. Again, I don't know how well this works, and it obviously has loopholes, but it's the closest thing i know of to what you are after -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
