URL filtering for ALIX + nanobsd install

valnar

chudy,
I tried that command but get an error saying it's a read-only file system. I'm running the nanobsd version on an ALIX board.

jimp

Precede that with:
/etc/rc.conf_mount_rw

And afterward use:
/etc/rc.conf_mount_ro

That will let you alter the file if you want.

That did it. Thanks!

OK, my pfSense install started to crawl and now the mgmt GUI is very slow. Any change results in an error stating something is out of space, even though it's not. I can't change any proxy settings without this error. I have uninstalled both squid and squidguard. Something is not right for an embedded install.

jimp

It may have exhausted the space in the memory disk (/var or /tmp)

A reboot would clear those

Did you have squid or squidguard set to log? that would certainly fill it up.

Yah, I think the memory was high - about 75%.

I thought I turned off all logging, but that's okay. I have a different way of accomplishing the same goal now. Thanks for the help.

My other method wasn't better, so I reinstalled squid and squidguard after reflashing my CF again (always want to start clean).

It worked fine today until I rebooted due to high memory use. This time the two services would not (and will not) start.

It won't start from the services page, and if I go into Proxy filter separately to start it instead, I get these errors on apply:


The following input errors were detected:

    * (B1) BLACKLIST 'ads' error: file '/var/db/squidGuard/ads' not found
    * (B1) BLACKLIST 'aggressive' error: file '/var/db/squidGuard/aggressive' not found

    * (B1) BLACKLIST 'violence' error: file '/var/db/squidGuard/violence' not found
    * (B1) BLACKLIST 'warez' error: file '/var/db/squidGuard/warez' not found

Now, I never downloaded a blacklist file before, nor did I need one to use squidguard. Do I have to now?

My services log on bootup, with squid entries only:

Disable blacklist checkbox.

valnar

It already was disabled. Both squid and squidguard services are not starting.
