Since there's been a lot of proxy combination talk lately, I started wondering about some proxy chaining of my own. I looked around, but couldn't find records of anyone doing the following.
I am considering the feasibility of chaining squidguard, dansguardian, and adzapper. I am also seeing if i could add a virus scanner to that chain, but that's for another post sometime down the road. I may be thinking about this all wrong, but the chain i'm considering is as follows: client -> squidguard -> dansguardian -> adzapper -> net The reasoning is that if the client shouldn't be viewing the site in the first place, why even send the request to the others. If it passes squidguard, then Dan's can check for content. If it is still okay, then adzapper could handle any associated ads. Does this sounds reasonable? Any horrible flaws i'm overlooking. Any suggestions how to best link them? Thank you for your time and consideration. Jesse __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
