      It's not implemented yet.

      Mail option will need a mailer daemon running on pfsense like postfix forwarder.

      I have tested SARG many time with Squid-reverse. This is my step
      1. I have installed Squid-reverse.
      2. I have installed SARG and after that I got some error: Sarg config error:log file () does not exits. I want to know what is wrong?.
      3. I tried to change the "userid" or the "ip address" to be a real user name on the reports like this: "172.31.21.22 Donny Van Cooper" but in the "View report and realtime"tab it does not show a real user name. Where can I resolve any ip address on pfSense or I have to resolve any ip address on Domain Controller (Windows Server 2008)
      4. I use Firefox web browser also Google Chrome for config SARG and at the "view report" tab dat you said to do is "This frame > reload frame" but some time it does not work I have to do again and again or I have to wait a few second and then report appear.
      5. Do I have only to select interface "LAN" or I have to select both "LAN and loopback on Squid-reverse.

      Thank u very much

        This maybe a first install bug, I'll check it.

        did you created any schedule on sarg to create reports?

        Just lan for normal use.

                Donny,

                Thanks for your feedback.

                I found an error on field check that was preventing user file to be created.

                I'm fixing it and including some other options before publishing.

                  • charset option field

                  • few more report config options

                  As users has its own tab, you may need to backup your sarg user configuration before update(just in case  ;))

                          reinstalling only.

                          [SOLVED] i also experience if i set up a schedule, and do a 'Force Update Now' i get no report, telling me:

                          Error: Could not find report index file.
                          Check sarg settings and try to force sarg schedule.
                          

                          in system logs i see:

                          Apr 10 15:55:45	php: /pkg_edit.php: The command '/usr/local/bin/sarg ' returned exit code '1', the output was 'SARG: Records in file: 174067, reading: 0.00%^MSARG: Maybe you have a broken date in your /var/log/dansguardian/access.log file SARG: getword_atoll loop detected after 2 bytes. SARG: Line="xx.xx.xx.xx http" SARG: Record="xx.xx.xx.xx http" SARG: searching for 'x2f''
                          

                          i deleted access.log and restarted dansguradian, everythings fine again. :)

                            sarg reads dansguardian logs only in squid format.

                            A log rotate(or remove like you did :)) should fix it after changing format.

                              Hi,
                              I just wonder, how can I map users name with dynamic IP address if my pfSense act as DHCP Server? Is it possible? In this case I do not use Windows Server.
                              example: I have 75 users desktop Windows XP or Windows 7 and get dynamic ip address from pfSense DHCP server or I have to map a real user name with ip address one by one at the option "Users association" like this:
                              172.31.21.22 Don Van Cooper
                              172.31.21.23 Teun Van Laarhoven
                              172.31.21.24 Marijon Kooijstra > until 75 users.

                              pfSense:  
                              1. pfSense is DNS Server
                              2. pfSense is DNS Forwarder
                              3. pfSense is DHCP Server

                              at option "Ntlm User Format" When I have changed from "domainname+username(default)" to "Username" and Realtime report is not working. what is differences between "domainname+username" and "Username" to use?

                                This option is usefull only when you have ntlm authentication using samba and active directory.

                                    this is a config bug in sarg

                                    config file says:

                                    TAG: ntlm_user_format username|domainname+username

                                    NTLM users format.

                                    #ntlm_user_format domainname+username
                                    ntlm_user_format username

                                    but sarg returns with:
                                    SARG: Unknown value "username" for parameter "ntlm_user_format"

                                    if I change this option to 'user' it works.

                                    I'm publishing a patch right now, whait 15 minutes and reinstall sarg

                                      @Donny:

                                      Thank u Marcelloc, One more question. When I have changed from "domainname+username(default)" to "Username" and why a realtime report is not working?

                                      this is a config bug in sarg

                                      config file says:

                                      TAG: ntlm_user_format username|domainname+username

                                      NTLM users format.

                                      #ntlm_user_format domainname+username
                                      ntlm_user_format username

                                      but sarg returns with:
                                      SARG: Unknown value "username" for parameter "ntlm_user_format"

                                      if I change this option to 'user' it works.

                                      I'm publishing a patch right now, whait 15 minutes and reinstall sarg

                                      Now I do a basic to authenticate and create local user on Squid-reverse. At authentication settings, they say that I have to turn off "Transparent proxy" and I have done it.
                                      at shedule tab I try to "force Update now" but at realtime report tab when I click "Show log", it does not show any report. It does not work when I use local user and authetication:local.

                                        After disabling transparente proxy, you are able to filter ssl but you need first to configure proxy settings on client browsers.

                                          at the web browsers client I have configured proxy setting and I tried to log in with local user name and password that I created from Squid proxy. after log in success I try to check at realtime report on SARG but the report only show ip address and it is not show user name that I used log in.

                                            Are you using just squid?

                                            Can you check in log files if you can see the auth user?
