RE: [squid-users] Configuring Squid to work with squidGuard...

Why are you using that command?

Personally what I do is run squidGuard -C all (to recompile the databases
when I add a site.)
Then I do squid -k reconfigure (which restarts squid) and squid
automatically starts squidGuard.

Then look at the log files and verify that it's running (last line is
"squidGuard ready for requests")

Now go to a web browser on a client and try to access a blocked site. You
should be shown a error page or redirected (whatever you configured it to
do).

Recap:
1. squidGuard -C all (as root)
2. squid -k reconfigure
3. check to make sure squidGuard is running
4. Test with browser
5. if not working, do squid -k kill, then "squid" to start it up again.

Good luck, let me know how it goes.

I have squidGuard working (i believe) If i issue the following command:

echo "http://www.zzm.com 64.125.84.23/- - GET" | squidGuard
-c /etc/squidguard.conf -d

2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] init
domainlist /var/lib/squidGuard/db/blacklist/domains
2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] loading
dbfile /var/lib/squidGuard/db/blacklist/domains.db
2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] init urllist
/var/lib/squidGuard/db/blacklist/urls
2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] loading
dbfile /var/lib/squidGuard/db/blacklist/urls.db
2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] squidGuard 1.2.0 started (1091823329.430)
2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] squidGuard ready for requests (1091823329.431)
http://www.google.com 64.233.167.104/- - GET
2004-08-06 15:15:29 [3379] squidGuard stopped (1091823329.432)

so it seems to me that squidGuard is working... i have the program_redirect
tag enabled in the squid config, and all acl disabled except for http_access
allow all

is there something i'm missing?

Any help greatly appreciated.. i've been trying to tinker with this for 2
weeks now... starting to get frustrating..
