Hi
All,
I am currently
running SquidGuard in an evaluation mode using a whitelist configuration and
have noticed the following issue? when defining domains and
subdomains.
I have scoured the
archive looking for a resolution to this and it appears that no-one else has
come across this.
I have a domainlist
that consists of the following domain:
intel.com
Using squidGuard I
am able to go to any of the pages in the intel.com domain
including:
developer.intel.com
appzone.intel.com
apps.intel.com
cedar.intel.com
This is fine, and
works as I would expect it.
If I modify my
domainlist slightly to look like the following, something unexpected (I think)
occurs:
intel.com
program.intel.com
Now looking at this,
would you agree that I should be able to go to anything that is in the intel.com
domain/subdomain (www.intel.com, developer.intel.com etc) as
well as being able to go to program.intel.com?
As it turns out, if I have the top level
domain of intel.com listed and I have the subdomain program.intel.com listed,
these become the only two sites I am now able to access at intel (intel is just
an example, it is the same for any domain).
ie
intel.com
ALLOW
www.intel.com
DENY
developer.intel.com DENY
appzone.intel.com
DENY
apps.intel.com
DENY
cedar.intel.com
DENY
programmer.intel.com
ALLOW
Is this by design?
Is there someway
that I can configure squidguard to allow users to go to sites in intel whether
they be explicitly listed or covered by the intel.com entry?
Any feedback on this
would be most appreciated.
Regards
