Good morning, everyone. I use Squid 2.5 Stable on a Mandrake 9.1 Linux box. It has proven itself nicely in the past, but now a gauntlet has been thrown, so to speak. Apparently, one of our users can still stream audio, even though I set up an ACL blocking a few sites. I've been reading a bit, and noticed that one person uses a url_regex command that points to a block.acl, while another person suggests filtering for mime strings. A third has suggested killing ports.
I'm going to ask my question differently, however. Is it possible to get a list of mime types, or offending ports, or even a good list of likely extensions? The "block.acl" suggestion is a great one that seems to work (I tested it on blocking "tar" files last night, and it worked), but I know it can't be all-inclusive, and not likely to stop a lot of the offending traffic. Any input is welcome. Thanks! Eric egeater at mscoinc dot com Eric Geater I.T. Representative MSCO, Inc. 731-935-8538 731-431-3742 egeater at mscoinc dot com
