set time acl and custom message squid

cgelectek · 06-09-2005, 07:22 PM

Hello,

I have setup squid on Fedora core 3 its works great! What I would like to do now is have the users of this proxy server only allowed to access the internet during lunch hours, 12:00p.m. to 1:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. If they try to access the internet any other time I would like a message to show on the browser. I understand the basics of linux and squid. I think this should work but it doesn't any ideas? Please give the right military time as well.

acl office_net src 192.168.1.0\255.255.255.0
acl lunch_net time MTWTF 12:00-1:00
http_access allow office_net lunch_net
http_access deny office_net

Thanks in advance for the help.........

the letter for thursday is supposed to be H (not T), AFAIK... and since this post was made on a thursday (june 6) that could be why it didn't work...

as for the time, try with 12:00-13:00... like this:

Code:

acl office_net src 192.168.1.0\255.255.255.0
acl lunch_net time MTWHF 12:00-13:00 
http_access allow office_net lunch_net
http_access deny office_net
