[SOLVED] Squid Acl block access to a particular url

rexjenny · 10-04-2011, 01:51 AM

We have a journal subsrciption with "www.ieee.org" site. This comes with a restriction by which the userid/password can be used only from a single ip at any given time(i.e no concurrent logins). I like to know whether the following can be implemented using Squid Web Proxy acls

Login page url for 'wwww.ieee.org'

http://www.ieee.org/membership_servi...c_id=u_msignin

Deny access to the above url only (not the entire ieee.org website) for the whole network while granting access from a single ip. Everyone should be able to browse the entire 'ieee.org' but access should be blocked to the above url while granting access from a single ip. Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi,

Sure it can be done. You can use the following acls:

Code:

acl ieee url_regex -i ^http://www.ieee.org/membership_services/membership/my_ieee.html(.*)$
acl allowed_ip src x.x.x.x
http_access allow allowed_ip ieee
http_access deny ieee

Regards
