      Hi dvserg,

      The SquidGuard configuration changes are applied correctly using the Save and Apply buttons. The problem, at least in 2.0.2, is that no changes actually take effect until you click the Save button on the Squid (Proxy server) configuration page or restart Squid from the command line.

      Ok. I will check it in the near time.

          Hello dvserg, I was checking what the buttons save and apply do, at some point the apply button stops the service, it says:
          "squidGuard 1.4 started", then, "db update done" and then appears "squidGuard stopped" I mean, as if the button would do the opposite.

          Otherwise, if I go to the tab "Status + Services" and restart the service, i get up to four messages that say "squidGuard 1.4 started" and "squidGuard ready for requests"

          Is there a way to reverse what the apply button does? I mean, at some point in the upgrade, this button function was changed and was wrong, the service starts and then stops, instead of stop service, and start.  :o

          Kind regards

                    Hi dvserg,

                    The SquidGuard configuration changes are applied correctly using the Save and Apply buttons.

                    The problem, at least in 2.0.2, is that the Proxy filter SquidGuard: Groups Access Control List (ACL) on the Squid (Proxy server) configuration
                    Transparent proxy mode port 80  not filter

                    For example, if I uncheck the "Allow users on interface" on Squid (Proxy server). no filter  SquidGuard
                    if I "Enabled"  "Allow users on interface" if filtered  SquidGuard

                    but it should work on Proxy server: Access control  if I add "Allowed subnets", if I uncheck the "Allow users on interface" should filtered  SquidGuard, but does not filter

                    Regards

                    Mauricio Niño

                    Thanks for your understanding.

                        If you update pfsense, then all packages will be reinstalled automatically.
                        Further all changes are on pfsense server. Every new install will have the fix dvserg provided.

                        @kelsen
                        I tried that on two VMs 2.0.1 and didn't get that problem.
                        The code is the same as on freeradius2 package or on pfblocker. Just the files which should be synced are different.

                        Further I updated pfsense 2.0.1 to 2.0.2 and it was still working.
                        Try to reinstall the squidguard package - perhaps something is missing.
