How do i block torrent file on squidguard proxy filter

[rsumook]

Blocking executable and other extensions i copy this code (./..(asf|wm|wma|wmv|zip|rar|cab|mp3|avi|mpg|swf|exe|mpeg|mp.|mpv|mp3|wm.|vpu)) and paste under Target categories and regular expression is working fine
i tried torrent file to block just adding |torrent after vpu but its not working.

is there a way to block torrent file

thanks

Not really sure what you are after. Blocking a *.torrent files won't produce much effective result, considering most torrents are just magnet links. Squidguard certainly will NOT block BT protocol traffic.

Thanks for your reply doktornotor

sorry i am really newbie, my objective is to block torrent files using pfsense squid and squidguard i can only block some extensions using this code (./..(asf|wm|wma|wmv|zip|rar|cab|mp3|avi|mpg|swf|exe|mpeg|mp.|mpv|mp3|wm.|vpu)).

Is there any other way instead blocking the websites.

Thanks

Block all outgoing and incoming port ranges, and allow ONLY the ones that users NEED to get out to the internet…?  That will help kill a ton of your torrent traffic issues, even if users can get a torrent file, or magnet link.

Seriously, there is ZERO point in blocking a torrent file it self, as right beside the link to download them tends to be a magnet URI that users can copy and paste right into a torrent client.  You are best off blocking torrent sites, as well as disabling any potential ports for torrents.

Thank you C0RR0SIVE, I will block all torrent sites and ports.

Not possible.  He intends to block the IP address of every torrent tracker in the world.  Good luck with that.

Perhaps you could have a look at Snort and the OpenAppID or whatnot… Blocking by IPs, file types etc. is completely ineffective or impossible
