Try this:
'cat porn/domains | grep playboy.com'
We know you'll find 'playboy.com' and 'www.playboy.com', but I'm
betting you'll find another subdomain of playboy.com.
Here's the way it works:
- If playboy.com is the only playboy.com domain in the file, squidGuard
will block:
"*.playboy.com/*".
- Let's say you add "iraqi.playboy.com" to the porn domains file.
Now squidGuard will block:
"playboy.com/*"
"*.iraqi.playboy.com/*"
- You've added "www.playboy.com", so now it will block:
"playboy.com/*"
"*.iraqi.playboy.com/*"
"*.www.playboy.com/*"
The solution is to remove all but the root domain (playboy.com).
