I can't recreate that. I added zone.msn.com to my domains file, rebuilt
the db and tried to go there and was blocked.

I see you've used "else" in your config file. Else is only used in
conjunction with a time declaration (Within acceptable-hours ......
else). I realize you did not post your entire configuration file; you
might want to verify that it is used properly.

zone.msn.com is a subdomain and should be in the domains list. It
shouldn't be in the urls file.

What are "wonder prOn sites"?

squidGuard will also pass those sites if you don't put them in file at
all (and it's much less work that way). To my knowledge, the leading
period is not supported. It doesn't accomplish anything good, and I
don't know if they have any negative effect. I'd clean 'em up.

Hope that helps!

Hello everyone.

        I've been toying with squidguard for about a week and everything seems
to be
working OK.

        However I noticed today that a site I added to a domains list isn't
being
blocked.  All the other sites I've added are blocked.  The particular
site
I'm trying to block is

zone.msn.com

        I've doublechecked the ACL and the destination list and I think they
are
right.  Here they are just incase this will help...



dest games {
        domainlist      games/domains
        urllist         games/urls
        redirect        http:/my.site.name/blocked.html/
}

acl {
        losers  {
                pass good !adult !webmail !entertainment !games
!software
!executables
        } else {
                pass !adult !webmail !software !executables any
        }
}

This is really just a partial list of my entire ACL/DEST, but all the
other
losers are setup in the same format.  I suppose I could look and make
sure
all my bracies {} are in place.

Anyhow, msn gaming zone is in both the domains and url list even though
the
FM says it will "match urls included in the domain list."

        Also one other thing.  I got a blacklist that said it was for
squidguard and
it's full of wonder pr0n sites to block, however some of the lines start
with
a period before the site name.  This seems to allow squidguard to pass
these
sites.  Is that normal, or has squidguard changed the domain file format
from
what the blacklist author has?

Thanks!
