Hi

Is there a way I can recieve a daily digest of posts to this mailing list 
instead of loads of separate emails, just like the squidGuard mailing list?

[squid-users] Squid acl containing hostnames issue

2006-05-26 Thread Jason Bassett

Hello

I work in a secondary school with 5 IT suites each with 20-30 computers.  I 
have created an acl for each room containing the hostnames of the machines 
for examle, an acl called R32 for room 32 contains:


R32001
R32002
...
R32030

If I set this acl to deny, not all machines are denied access only a random 
group within the room.


I originally run a GNU/Linux dhcp server to allocate static IPs to all 
network machines and then created acl's based on the IP ranges of machines 
in each room.  This worked perfectly but now Research Machines who "support" 
us have demanded I remove the GNU/Linux dhcp server otherwise they will not 
"support" our installation.


I am therefore looking for the easiest and most time effective method of 
blocking rooms when required.  Hostnames seemed to be the best way.


Any ideas on this issue?

Thanks

Jason

Hiya

The ip of the squid server is 10.146.24.23. an internal address.

My ip as found though google shows as 80.193.20.30 because that is my 
external router.


My router, my squid server and my entire network are located in England.

That's not a squid problem.  It's your problem with the BBC website.

What is the IP of the squid server?  Do a search for what is my ip on 
Google using your squid, find out your squid's IP address, and find out 
where the IP address is located.  Where is the squid server?  If it is in 
the UK, complain to BBC.  If it's not in the UK, then get a squid server 
that is in the UK, or get a peer in the UK that is used to connect to the 
BBC.

Good morning

We are running squid version 2.5.  I now understand that there is a version
3?

We are in England.

When we search at www.bbc.co.uk/news (for example for 'genocide' - thats 
the

topic the children are working on), we recieve a list of results, we click
"All News Audio Video results >>" and get a more defined list of results
with media clips.

Clicking many of these links results in a greyish BBC page stating "We're
sorry. The content you requested is available for UK users only.".  We are
in the UK to this page should appear.

This only occurs when going through the Squid proxy.

Hi folks

Its sorted now, D& E Radels solution worked.  Mark im afraid your solution 
still caused me a similar error.


Can anyone explain what "header_access X-Forwarded-For deny all" line 
actually does?


Thanks for all your help

Try:   header_access X-Forwarded-For deny all

Deny should come afterwards.

  What is in squid´s access.log for these requests ?
  Anything else in cache.log ?

Hello

Via the webmin interface I turned on/off "X_Forwarded_For?".

Via the squid.conf file i tried "forwarded_for" set to both yes and no.

Our IP address range is the internal range of 10.146.*

Are you using IP's from this ranges on your network?

By the forwarded_for setting, do you mean the "X-Forwarded-For header?", i 
have tried this on and off but no change.  I can not see a "forwarded_for" 
option on its own.

I guess you use IPs from private ranges on your network (10.*, 192.168.* or
172.16-31.*). If so, try setting forwarded_for to off, and if that helps,
it's probably a bug on their page that should be reported.

[squid-users] Squid is blocking access to some BBC news sites

2006-01-05 Thread Jason Bassett

Hello everyone

I am using SQUID in a school with SQUIDGUARD.  It has been brought to my 
attention that various news articles at www.bbc.co.uk/news do not open 
properly.  This only occurs when going through the SQUID proxy.  I have 
disabled SQUIDGUARD to ensure this was not the problem, it is definitely a 
SQUID issue.


When we search at www.bbc.co.uk/news (for example for 'genocide' - thats the 
topic the children are working on), we recieve a list of results, we click 
"All News Audio Video results >>" and get a more defined list of results 
with media clips.


Clicking many of these links results in a greyish BBC page stating "We're 
sorry. The content you requested is available for UK users only.".  We are 
in the UK to this page should appear.


Bypassing SQUID completely, resolves this issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
