      This works for 2.2:

      rm -r /usr/local/sarg-reports
      ln -s /usr/pbi/sarg-amd64/local/sarg-reports /usr/local/sarg-reports

        Simple solution, it really is. Run pfSense in one Virtural Machine and run Squid 3.5.1 (Squid is developed on FreeBSD) on another VM in a different subnet. Use wpad.dat/proxy.pac to seamlessly integrate the two.  Sarg works really well this way installed from packages. AND you will learn a lot doing it.

        And it just works better this way.

          On freebsd ports, squid is still on 3.4

          When it gets updated to 3.5 I'll update pfsense package.

            I never understood why Squid lags behind on FreeBSD ports. The official repository states that Squid is developed on FreeBSD and the generic compile instructions are for FreeBSD.

            http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/CompilingSquid

            Since I run pfSense on ESXi, it makes it very easy to just fire up a minimal VM and build Squid from source. It seems to me to be a cleaner setup this way and I have far less problems with adding utility to Squid when I need it. Sarg works great and has full functionality. As it is, I have less the $200.00us in my ESXi pfSense/Squid setup.

            I'm only stating this as an option. I am not taking away from the fine pfSense Squid package.

              Seems a loop process. If Amos release a version and update it on ports, would be easier.

              Thanks for the suggestion.
