Are you sure it's running? I've been using sG on OpenBSD for a number of years, but when I moved to v. 3.4, it was no longer automatically loading the BerkeleyDB libraries upon reboot. It showed errors in the logs about not being able to start squidGuard or somesuch; I can't remember the exact error message, but you can fix it by adding the following to your /etc/rc.local file, before starting squid:
/sbin/ldconfig -m /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.0/lib (Changing the path to match the location of your BerkeleyDB, of course.) I never had to do this with oBSD 3.3 and under, but you have to do it on 3.5 also. I have also had difficulty using the BerkeleyDB from ports; since it's files are installed in multiple directories under /usr/local, squidGuard couldn't find it since it expects it to be all in one directory. I've been using 4.0.14 (downloaded from the sG site) sucessfully. I tried 4.2.52, but couldn't get it to compile. BTW, I recently presented a preconference at ALA on running squid, squidGuard, & DansGuardian on OpenBSD, and here are the materials from it; basically it's a howto about how to install, maintain, & monitor them, if anyone is interested: http://meadvillelibrary.org/os/osfiltering-ala/ Cindy _________________________ Cindy Murdock Network Administrator Meadville Public Library | Crawford County Federated Library System meadvillelibrary.org | ccfls.org On Wednesday 14 July 2004 03:49 pm, Mike Robinson wrote: > We were running a filter on redhat9 and have just moved to openBSD. > > Everything seemed good until I noticed that squidGuard wasn't > actually redirecting anything. > > Stripping the config file down works: > ### > logdir /var/squid/logs/squidGuard/ > dbhome /etc/squid/blacklists > > acl { > default { > pass none > redirect http://gonowhere.com > } > } > ### > > stepping up to this fails: > ### > logdir /var/squid/logs/squidGuard/ > dbhome /etc/squid/blacklists > > > dest porn { > domainlist porn/domains > > > > > acl { > default { > pass !porn all > redirect http://gonowhere.com > } > } > ### > > Everything passes. > > I've compiled against both db2 and db3, same results. > > No errors in the log file.
