          I wasn't seeing any results from the white or black lists under the 12-23 build with the latest package and transparent proxy.  Will try a clean install and see if that fixes it.  Anyone else?

            Just tried a clean install.  Still not seeing any effect from the access control lists, namely the blacklist and whitelist.  This was on the 12/23 build and Squid 2.6.5_1-p6.  I'm also seeing strange lines (errors?) in the sys log.  A sample follows.

            Squid is in fact running and I can use it manually through my browser or via transparent.  Just not sure why none of the lists are working and the strange log entries.

              I still have not found time to test the access control lists. Not sure what's wrong because acls are a integral part of squid.

              The log lines that is exiting with error code 1 is weird. Because I don't see that, or at least not as much. The good thing is that process does not get killed but fails to startup. I see this particularly on boot.

              I am pondering the thought of recommending squidguard to implement filtering although I have zerro experience with that. And i'm not sure if we have a package for that yet.

                The lastest package causes squid to start twice, that's why where getting all the squid xxx exited due blah blah blah in the squid logs.  It seems that when the package is synced with squid.inc on startup, it starts squid, then all the .sh files in rc.d are executed and it starts squid again.  With the update to the package I think the *.sh stop was removed to fix the problem with proxy_monitor hanging, and it was effective, I think with some edits to the squid.inc file we could be good to go again.  I'll take a look at it myself, but just wanted to let you know about it.  It also seems one is started with the user root and the other the user proxy.  I'll report back when I know more

                  Could the dual instances of Squid be killing the ACLs?  Are the ACLs up and running on one instance but all traffic is being routed through the other?

                    I just performed a upgrade to the latest code and after a reboot there are no errors and start properly. At least with the current -p6 version.

                        What version of pfSense are you using?  I'd like to try this too.  I tried a clean install of the 12-23 build, but those errors I posted were from that.  Also, have you tried transparent mode?

                          I'm using Pfsense 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-12-23-2006, and your updated squid 2.6.5_1-p6.  I am using transparent mode with access log enabled.

                          on a clean boot this is the error I get in the system logs:

                          It seems strange to me that PHP thinks its starting squid when no other package does that, it looks like it still gets executed that way and in the rc.d?  I'm thinking that the bind error and the one that stalls out is the second one being started, because after all those error messages under status > services squid is still running and a ps -U proxy reveals:

                          662  ??  S      0:01.49 (squid) -D (squid)

                          Still looking into how to fix it on my end, any help is appreciated though

                          Update:
                          After changing squid.sh to squid in the rc.d so it doesn't startup on boot I get this in the systme logs:

                              I am testing pfSense 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-12-28-2006 and squid 2.6.5_1-p6

                              Everything seemed to be working fine until I tried adding some access control lists ;)  I tried entering a mac address in the "Unrestricted MAC Addresses" text box.

                              Now when I enter: /usr/local/sbin/squid status
                              at a shell prompt, I get:

                              2007/01/04 20:50:37| aclParseAclLine: Invalid ACL type 'arp'
                              FATAL: Bungled squid.conf line 40: acl unrestricted_macs arp "/var/squid/acl/unrestricted_macs.acl"
                              Squid Cache (Version 2.6.STABLE5): Terminated abnormally.

                              I believe that this error would occur when the configuration parameter: –enable-arp-acl
                              was not included when squid was compiled.

                              I haven't had a chance to dig through the php code yet to see if or where this might be missing but wanted to know if maybe I have missed something obvious before I do.

                              Thanks.

                                  Strange.  Then I am not sure why it is giving that error.  Another squid guru would have to chime in.

                                    well after the rc.d file is removed, squid still starts, and the errors for the most part disappear, I think its because it starts once, then it tries to start again, but it can't bind because those ports are already in use by the previous instance of squid.

                                      @Justinw,

                                      Did you install squid from the command line, or did you use pfSense's package manager (latest version)? I didn't encounter the problem that you are seeing even when using the same versions. Have you tried resinstalling everything from scratch? As long as you save your config first, maybe that would be the fastest way to resolve your issue?

                                        The rc.d problem was fixed in a recent snapshot.  Make sure your running something recent.

                                          The last attempt for me was on 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-12-28-2006, latest squid package availble on the package manager.  I will try a scratch install again though and see if that fixes it.

                                          Are you running squid in transparent mode?

                                            Install a version from http://snapshots.pfsense.com/FreeBSD6/RELENG_1/ to test with.
