Everything worked just perfectly until I had occasion to restart the
machine and then everything just stopped. It no longer blocks. I am so
stumped, I just can't understand why. I don't see anything changing. How
can I debug this further? It is still logging to the log file and there
are no errors logged.
Help please.
Do you see a 'ready for requests' message at the bottom of the SG log?
Have you checked your squid and system logs for clues. If you are
running a transparent proxy did you lose the port redirect to squid when
you rebooted? Have you tried checking SG from the command line?
I'll attach a little shell script I use for the latter (assuming the
list software will let it through).
