How to restrict facebook
 

How to block the some websites for the particular ip address in squid server.I am new to the squid server.Can any one guide me

Hello,

You can use what's explained in this blog to block Facebook access for an entire LAN or specific IP.

Kind regards,

Eric

i have created some lists like allowed.clients and restricte_sites are the files in the usr/local/etc/ path.I want to block the facebook for the particular ip addresses in the network.And i have to allow some websites to the particular user(Ip addresses)

which distro are you using? here is a sample syntax

similarly you can block websites for few USERS

This is i am using in squid.cof file

#Recommended minimum configuration:
acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
acl manager proto cache_object
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255

acl webapp_port port 81
acl webapp_ip dst 10.1.7.21
acl CONNECT method CONNECT
#acl block_host src 192.168.1.200

acl allowed_clients dstdomain "/usr/local/etc/allowed.clients"
#acl badsites dstdomain "/usr/local/etc/restricted_sites"
acl isoft_net src 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
#acl badsites dstdomain "/usr/local/etc/restricted.site"

acl fb dstdomain .facebook.com

#http_access deny badsites
http_access allow isoft_net
http_access deny !allowed_clients fb
#http_access deny badsites

to block facebook for few users

I have a small doubt if is place the denied ip address in a file .how to define in the squid file directory.

Ex:you have given me the ip address acl denied_users src 192.168.1.50 192.168.1.23
instead of that how to place all the ip address in one file .I want to block the some other sites also like hi5.com,orkut.com

mention all the IP address with special permission in the same place
or create a file in /etc/squid
in squid.conf

Hello,

Where should i define following code in squid.conf.
And remains details in the below squid.conf file.Can you conform.If anything goes wrong total internet will distrube.i create the badsites.acl file.Can you write the code in the below squid.conf file

acl mynetwork src 192.168.1.0/24
http_access allow mynetwork
http_access deny all

mention all the IP address with special permission in the same place
Code:

acl denied_users src (all the IPs)
acl bad_sites dstdomain .facebook.com .hi5.com .orkut.com
http_access deny CONNECT bad_sites
http_access allow denied users

or create a file in /etc/squid
Code:

#vi badsites.acl
.facebook.com
.yahoo.com

in squid.conf
Code:

acl badsites url_regex "/etc/squid/badsites.acl"
http_access deny badsites


#############This is the present squid.conf file in the server,##############

Show me your allowed.clients file

put the acl where other acls are mentioned
there is a section in squid.conf

Please check the files allowed.clients file under usr/local/etc/allowed.clients

192.168.1.17
192.168.1.6
192.168.1.55

I have never tried working with putting all IPs in one file so I wont be able to help if that works

I will try the above one which you guide me for the modify code in the squid.conf file.

acl allowed_clients dstdomain "/usr/local/etc/allowed.clients"
acl Badsites dstdomain "/usr/local/etc/restricted_sites"
acl soft_net src 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
acl badsites dstdomain "/usr/local/etc/restricted.site"

In the allowed.clinets file i defined the ip address list 192.168.1.4 and 192.168.1.8

and restricted.site file defined that blocked for the remaing users


But it is not working still that users able to access the facebook and other sites

check and compare the syntax you are using from the one I had posted
and I don't see any http_access syntax in your config file?
Now I can't go on and imagine your config file so it would be better if you post with all the related information
