    is it possible to add an autoupdate blacklists option and be able to specify multiple urls?

    here is a squidguard.com faq excerpt

    Is there a way to automatically update the lists of blocked sites?
    Here is a shell script which will do this. This script was originally written by Rick Matthews. I have made some small changes to it; for instance, I have the script create the new directories it may need when it first runs. Also, I have changed it to reflect the change of address for squidguard.org's ftp site.

    After downloading the script, you should edit it to give correct values to  the variables which point to your squid and squidGuard binaries, and to your squidGuard blacklist databases. This script also uses the "wget" utility to download the files. It is more reliable and easier to use wget than to script an FTP session. If your system does not have it already, it is available as an RPM package for RedHat, or in other forms from Sunsite, among other places.

    any ideas?

      In current version not relised.

      and be able to specify multiple urls?

      Why this need? Every blacklist have self structure and names. You must use only one blacklist source and apply you ACL rules for this blacklist.

      Script - good item for update. I ready view this (you have url?).
      Thanks.
