Now the count is up to 6 copies of this! We heard you, already.

I noticed that you said the line in squid is:

redirect_program /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c
/usr/local/squidGuard/filter.conf

The location of the conf file seems wrong - shouldn't it be:

redirect_program /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c
/usr/local/squidGuard/etc/filter.conf

? I think this is the standard location for it if you are putting SG in
/usr/local.

Subject: Help: New install


Hi,

I'm very new to squid and obviously squidguard.

I've installed squidguard and I've performed a test using a test file with
the following

http://www.playboy.com whatever.ip.it.was/- - GET

I then run squidguard

/usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c /usr/local/squidGuard/filter.conf < test >
test.out

when I run this and checkout the squidGuard.log I see that it's opened the
db (the
default porn domains list) and it seems to be working.  I added
www.playboy.com to the
domains file in the db/porn folder.

Now - when I start squid (I've edited the squid.conf file and set the
redirect_program
and redirect_children as per the web page) I don't believe squid is starting
squidGuard.

redirect_program is set to:

redirect_program /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c
/usr/local/squidGuard/filter.conf

The squidGuard.log file is empty after starting squid.  No entries at all.

Any ideas where I can start.

squid is version 2.4STABLE3
Redhat 7.1

-Rob

PS:  Does squidGuard cache it's DB after it opens it?  Otherwise things will
be pretty
slow around here.
