Squid and Dansguardian in use, but users to bypass proxy on certain times of the day

Hi all,

I am running a transparent squid proxy, Version 2.6.STABLE17 and Dansguardian, Version 2.8.0.6 on Redwall firewall and both work very well.
Maybe a bit too strict for most users liking.

Management has requested that all sites, except pornography, be accessible between 08:30 - 16:30

My configs are as follows:
squid.conf:
http_port 192.168.1.1:3128 transparent
acl business_hours time M T W H F 8:30-16:30
http_access allow lan business_hours

dansguardian.conf:
filterport = 8080
proxyip = 192.168.1.1
proxyport = 3128

How would I go about configuring Squid and Dansguardian to still block pornography between those hours but allow all other sites?

Thanks

This should help get you going.

However, I'd tell your management they're being idiots. Folks are at work, and unless you're blocking work-related websites, the users can quit complaining. Disabling proxy rules to suit users is just plain dumb.
