Thanks for your advice.

db-4.1 will require squidGuard-1.2.1, but you might not want to go there. See:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=squidguard&m=103477692125832&w=2

I have squidGuard-1.2.1 downloaded and am prepared to use it. But how to remove squidGuard-1.2.0 which has been installed in my system and it is not in rpm?

If you fall back to a 3.x db version, use at least 3.2.9 and be sure
to install the patches.  Information is here:
http://www.sleepycat.com/download/patchlogs.shtml

I am not going to fall back to a 3.x db version. In order to accumulate more knowledge I have browsed the site and have following questions.

1) What is "with cryptography" and "without cryptography"
2) What is the package "VxWorks 5.4" for ?
3) I have the patch for db-4.1.25 saved but in html format (I can save it in txt format). How to install it on db-4.1.25?

I'd recommend you start with the following config file:

--------- /usr/local/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf ------------------
logdir /usr/local/squidGuard/log
dbhome /usr/local/squidGuard/db/blacklists

src mynet {
        ip             192.168.0.0-192.168.44.100
}

dest porn {
        domainlist     porn/domains
        urllist        porn/urls
        redirect       http://your.server.com/your-blocked-page
        logfile        blocked.log
}

dest pornexp {
        expressionlist porn/expressions
        redirect       http://your.server.com/your-blocked-page
        logfile        blocked.log
}

acl {
        mynet {
            pass !porn !pornexp all
        }

        default {
            pass none
        redirect        http://your.server.com/access-not-allowed-page
        logfile         blocked.log
        }
}
------------ end of squidGuard.conf ------------------------

Is it using Keditor to do the job, copying the above content to an empty file and afterwards save the file under /usr/local/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf

Put squidGuard.conf in /usr/local/squidGuard/

Download the blacklist from the squidGuard site and put it in /usr/local/squidGuard/db

'cd /usr/local/squidGuard/db'
'tar zxvf blacklists.tar.gz'
'chown -R squid.squid /usr/local/squidGuard/db/blacklists'
(squid.squid above should match cache_effective_user and cache_effective_group in your squid.conf file)

Let us know how it is going.

Rick
