friends ,

I want to configure "Dansguardian" into my Redhat Linux Enterprise 4 .Hence i have Download Danguardian rpm and install it & configure like the following way :

1) For Squid ,I have written into squid.conf :

acl network src 192.168.10.0/24
http_access allow network

where my network is : 192.168.10.0/24 and my host is "server.example.com (192.168.10.20)"

My squid is running fine .

2) for Danguardian , "Danguardian.conf" is :

reportinglevel = 2

accessdeniedaddress = http://server.example.com/cgi-bin/dansguardian.pl

loglevel = 3

filterip =
filterport = 8080
proxyport = 3128
proxyip = 192.168.10.20

bannedphraselist = '/etc/dansguardian/bannedphraselist'
exceptionphraselist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptionphraselist'
weightedphraselist = '/etc/dansguardian/weightedphraselist'
bannedsitelist = '/etc/dansguardian/bannedsitelist'
exceptionsitelist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptionsitelist'
exceptionurllist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptionurllist'
bannedurllist = '/etc/dansguardian/bannedurllist'
bannedregexpurllist = '/etc/dansguardian/bannedregexpurllist'
bannedextensionlist = '/etc/dansguardian/bannedextensionlist'
bannedmimetypelist = '/etc/dansguardian/bannedmimetypelist'
bannediplist = '/etc/dansguardian/bannediplist'
exceptioniplist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptioniplist'
banneduserlist = '/etc/dansguardian/banneduserlist'
exceptionuserlist = '/etc/dansguardian/exceptionuserlist'
picsfile = '/etc/dansguardian/pics'

weightedphrasemode = 1
naughtynesslimit = 50
showweightedfound = on

reverseaddresslookups = off
createlistcachefiles = on
maxuploadsize = -1

username_id_method_proxyauth = off
username_id_method_ntlm = off # **NOT IMPLEMENTED**
username_id_method_ident = on

forwarded_for = off
maxchildren = 120
log_connection_handling_errors = on


Using this configuration i write "google.com" in "bannedsitelist" so that user cannot access this site . But it doesn't work ?

Is there any mistake in my configuration ? Is any more thing is necessary , then plz inform me . i will be glad to u ?

enter filterip = 192.168.10.20

Did you actually start dansguardian process by executing command

# dansguardian

Check if dansguardian is listening on port 8080

# netstat -lnpt

Have you configured your IE/Firefox browser to use Proxy IP = 192.168.10.20 and Proxy Port = 8080 ??

check the dansguardian access log. In my setup it's located here:

# tail -f /usr/local/var/log/dansguardian/access.log

You have to enable logging in the dansguardian.conf file using this variable:

loglocation = '/usr/local/var/log/dansguardian/access.log'
