Why are you using that command? Personally what I do is run squidGuard -C all (to recompile the databases when I add a site.) Then I do squid -k reconfigure (which restarts squid) and squid automatically starts squidGuard.
Then look at the log files and verify that it's running (last line is "squidGuard ready for requests") Now go to a web browser on a client and try to access a blocked site. You should be shown a error page or redirected (whatever you configured it to do). Recap: 1. squidGuard -C all (as root) 2. squid -k reconfigure 3. check to make sure squidGuard is running 4. Test with browser 5. if not working, do squid -k kill, then "squid" to start it up again. Good luck, let me know how it goes. -----Original Message----- From: Samir Faci [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: August 6, 2004 4:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [squid-users] Configuring Squid to work with squidGuard... I have squidGuard working (i believe) If i issue the following command: echo "http://www.zzm.com 64.125.84.23/- - GET" | squidGuard -c /etc/squidguard.conf -d 2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] init domainlist /var/lib/squidGuard/db/blacklist/domains 2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] loading dbfile /var/lib/squidGuard/db/blacklist/domains.db 2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] init urllist /var/lib/squidGuard/db/blacklist/urls 2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] loading dbfile /var/lib/squidGuard/db/blacklist/urls.db 2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] squidGuard 1.2.0 started (1091823329.430) 2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] squidGuard ready for requests (1091823329.431) http://www.google.com 64.233.167.104/- - GET 2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] squidGuard stopped (1091823329.432) so it seems to me that squidGuard is working... i have the program_redirect tag enabled in the squid config, and all acl disabled except for http_access allow all is there something i'm missing? Any help greatly appreciated.. i've been trying to tinker with this for 2 weeks now... starting to get frustrating.. Sam
