Hi all,
I’m sure this might be considered a newbie question to most of you.
Is there a way that I could limit certain users who bypass a certain quota per
day ?
Let me explain. Lets say user A exceeded a previously set allowed quota of 100
MB per day.
I want him to be moved from the default delay pool to a new limited delay pool.
Is it possible?
Yes.
How can I do it ?
With an external ACL. See external_acl_type and delay_access for more info.
Another question, I have a huge blacklist that I’d like of squid to block.
Around 10 000 url and domain..
Each time I add it to a test acl/rule it works perfectly. Only desired
urls/domains are blocked.
Though when I apply the rule to all users.. Everything gets an access denied
error including urls/domains which do not exist in the specified ACL..
Is it a thing with squid that it cannot check a big file?
It can, but doing so is processor intensive. Separate as much as you
can into a dstdomain acl and block on that first.
As for why you are having problems, there must be a difference between
your test acl/rule pair and your applies-to-users acl/rule pair.
Thanks for your help in advance..
Best,
Roland
