I've had success doing exactly what you are trying.  Not sure where you're going wrong.  I just double checked my config and added a new allowed site by IP, it worked, take it out of the whitelist, it blocked it.

The only other thing I could suggest would be to make sure that the WebConfigurator is using https so as not to use port 80 at the same time that Squid needs it.

Make sure you're running the latest snapshot and build of the package, good luck.

You can install packages from the ports collection (see http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,3881.msg23723.html#msg23723 ) but we don't recommend it nor do we support it. pfSense is a firewall and should not run desktop like applications.

There is no pfSense package for this yet. Everything else is unsupported though you might be able to hack it in.

I am going to review the code shortly, since I have seen this issue as well. For some reason, in order for snort performance settings to take effect, you have to click save twice under Snort settings.

THANK YOU!

I never imagined it was do darn easy! MC works perfectly.

@sullrich:

Configure it first…

I reinstalled the pakage , and when i looked at the settings it semed like it was configured ( aka: all settings was the same as before )
after i read your answer i just hit the save button  aka resaving the configuration and now it works :-)

Thank you for superb support :-)

@sullrich:

Please report back if it works okay and give us a nice HONK for excellent service :)

It works like a dream  :-) EXELLENT service

This requires a recent snapshot.  Please update to a newer snapshot.

@rikrobson:

i have installed the bandwidthd package but cannot get any graphs despite trying several settind on the webconfigurator.

al i get is
bandwidthd has nothing to graph. This message should be replaced by graphs in a few minutes. If it's not, please see the section titled "Known Bugs and Troubleshooting" in the README

any suggestions?

It only works on certain nics.  Please see the beginning of the bounty thread.

Whenever it gets fixed. Nobody is working on this currently. However, you might be interested in sponsoring work on this: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,2824.0.html

Depending on the version you run you see more or less packages (some packages need yu to be at a special version). openntpd should be there. However siproxd is broken afaik and is hidden atm.

@rafael.cardoso:

I need help with one trouble, squid works now and very thanks for job to do its possible, but i have one site www.caixa.com.br, this site has problems when its cached, how to do for dont cache or passing from squid this or more sites? It´s possible, in linux iptables the option is -d, pfsense has something like that?  ???

Hello Rafael,

I dont understand your question.
In the "cache management" tab you can enter domainnames or IP addresses which will not be cached.
Enter
www.caixa.com.br
there and this side should not be cached.

Under services, it lists IMSpector twice for me. Is it doing that for everyone else?

I think there have been reports in the past that some of the rules can cause issues if enabled (either meaning they eat lot of mem or whatever). Maybe try to uncheck some rules and add them back one by one. I have snort running on a 1U server with 1.2GB with no issues.

Now I get a blank screen ??????

tried that and the services went then on reinstall all came back + 1. The only way I mananged to remove them was to do a package backup edit the xml then restore config.

So it isn´t possible just to add two ACl lists to the code of Squid?
Something like:
acl semirestricted_hosts src "/var/squid/acl/semirestricted_hosts.acl"
acl semirestrictedlist dstdom_regex -i "/var/squid/acl/semiwhite.acl"

acl lessrestricted_hosts src "/var/squid/acl/lessrestricted_hosts.acl"
acl lessrestrictedlist dstdom_regex -i "/var/squid/acl/lesswhite.acl"

Then further in the code I give them access

I can´t figure out how to do that? I am trying to give for each part of the company a different permission to the internet.

ANY help is welcome….

@hsiang:

Yup, the problem solved. but when i configure some setting in cache management, when i save it, i prompt
The following input errors were detected:

* The field 'Hard disk cache location' is required.

I thought that this field by default is empty?? we do not need to key in any entry unless we want to change the default path?

Not sure.  I would ask in an active squid thread.

So if I understand correctly if you set the maximum object size to 0, it will still memory cache but not disk cache?
