Hi there,

I posted a question a couple of hours ago, naming my problem that
squidGuard as a commandline runs, but for a redirect_program for squid
it doesn't.

could that has anything to do with the fact that nslookups are not
working? Is squid doing nslookups before redirecting to the
redirect_program? If so, can I avoid this?

Just to explain:

I 'm sitting behind a firewall which accepts exactly one Proxy at a
specific IP-adress. This Proxy has Caberpatrol as a filter-program,
which we try to substitute through squidGuard because of bad
performance. If I configure the "real" squid as a parent for my local
squid , cyberpatrol blocks the pages. To avoid this I run the local
squid as a standalone server leading me into the problem of not having
nslookups running.

Can I force my local squid (redirecting to squidGuard) to redirect
before it sends requests to its siblings/parents?

I feel that this question has more to do with configuring squid rather
than squidGuard, but I would appreciate any answer.

Thank you very much

Peter Barth
