Integration of the Squid Cache Manager into pfSense

Steve Evans

Having installed Squid, I wanted to know how well it was performing, so some googling revealed that there was a Cache Manager status web page that hadn't been integrated into pfSense along with the settings.

The BandwidthD service provides an "Access BandwidthD" tab which opens another window with the service specific web page. This doesn't conform to pfSense style, but it does make it easy to access and I figured something similar for Squid would be good.

Credit to the post HERE for getting me started, but here's a neater solution to accessing the manager.

From a pfSense shell, first enable writes to the file system if using nanobsd.

/etc/rc.conf_mount_rw

Then enter the following commands to enable the web page.

cd /usr/local/www
ln -s /usr/local/libexec/squid/cachemgr.cgi
cd /usr/local/etc/squid
cp cachemgr.conf.default cachemgr.conf

No need to modify from the default.

Next, modify the file at /usr/local/pkg/squid.xml adding the lines highlighted below in red, starting at line 94.

<tab><text>Local Users</text>
<url>/pkg.php?xml=squid_users.xml</url></tab>
<tab><text>CacheMgr</text>
<url>/cachemgr.cgi?host=localhost&port=3128&user_name=&operation=menu&auth=" target="_blank</url></tab>

On nanobsd, switch back to read-only.

/etc/rc.conf_mount_ro

Then restart Squid.

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/squid.sh restart

Browse to Services->Proxy server and you'll see a new CacheMgr tab. Click on it to open the Squid CacheMgr page.

Brilliant, thanks.

rocaembole

thanks!!

but i have the following error :(

Cache Manager Error

connect: (60) Operation timed out

Is the full URL as shown below? I can't see it in your screenshot.

https:///cachemgr.cgi?host=localhost&port=3128&user_name=&operation=client_list&auth=

Steve

rocaembole

full url= http://10.0.0.6/cachemgr.cgi?host=localhost&port=3128&user_name=&operation=menu&auth=

But, if i put your url manually, gives me the same error

Steve Evans

Is squid working correctly? Do you have a rule to allow access from the LAN to port 3128 on your pfSense box?

Steve

rocaembole

Squid works perfectly. ACL allows all. Firewall is widely opened (pass any to any from/to any port) on LAN.-

I'm trying by proxy and by LAN (My squid's in non transparent mode) and can't access…

attach some other images also squid.conf & squidguard.conf

Did you remember to add localhost and your pfsense box' interface IP to 'External Cache-Managers' under the tab Access Control?

My setting:
LAN: 192.168.2.0/24. Gateway (pfsense) 192.168.2.1
External Cache-Managers: 127.0.0.1;192.168.2.1;

I can see that I have the following link: ln -s /var/log/squid /var/squid/logs/

rocaembole

In my case /var/log/squid doesn't exists :)

mir

Does this folder have any contents? /var/squid/logs/
That folder did not exists on my pfsense either but the reason was that squid seems to log into /var/log/squid

Hi friends,

rocaembole

try to remove semicolon after 10.0.0.6, I have not and it works, then it say "separated" by semi-colons.
Just to try :)

rocaembole

I see that too and tried without semicolon but neither works

@rocaembole:

I'm trying by proxy and by LAN (My squid's in non transparent mode) and can't access…

I use transparent mode. I wonder if that's part of your problem?

I'm on pfSense 2.2.1 and I just installed squid3 and set up a simple transparent proxy. No clamav, no squidguard. I was trying to follow the OP's tuturial to add access to the cachemgr tab:

cd /usr/local/www
ln -s /usr/local/libexec/squid/cachemgr.cgi
cd /usr/local/etc/squid
cp cachemgr.conf.default cachemgr.conf

The problem is the paths are all different.
/usr/local/libexec/squid and /usr/local/etc/squid do not exist.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

edit: I figured it out (I'm a BSD noob…sorry)

Here are the paths.

/usr/pbi/squid-i386/local/etc/squid

/usr/pbi/squid-i386/local/libexec/squid

I'm not sure if the paths changed due to newer pfSense version, or the fact I'm using squid3 vs. squid, but it did work for me!
