Unofficial E2guardian package for pfSense

@pfsensation My experience has been the same. With e2guardian in direct mode things work fairly well. Only a few things I needed to bypass.

Yeah, I gave up trying to use Squid. The current implementation wasn't worth my time anyways, since HTTPS content that E2 Guardian decrypts and sees wasn't being added to Squid cache. Furthermore, I noticed a speed improvement when bypassing squid in the setup, the Squid in pfsense is an older version (although I think Marcelloc has a newer one in his repo).
I also had other issues with Squid, such as not generating fake certs properly (when using the SSL intercept feature). The certs didn't have a Subject alternative name which caused a tonne of sites and stuff to fail.
On top of that, nowadays browsers do a really good job of caching things locally. The benefits have become quite minimal, unless your bandwidth is completely trash and you have users visiting the same content over and over.
If @marcelloc has a newer version of Squid, that doesn't have the certs issue and slow down issue. I may give it a shot when I have time. But so far I'm pretty content with E2 Guardian, I'm using it at home with no issues. Only thing missing is an updated word list and a good blacklist that's maintained well.

There is one more issue when how to configure e2g for ad authentication??
i am configure squid for that but when we allow in e2g transparent proxy there is error occurs Proxy authentication error...... -
Good day Marcelloc,
E2Guardian has antivirus feature. I just want to ask, how do you know or check that the antivirus is running and if the antivirus is up to date ?
In E2Guardian, you can setup the frequency on updating blacklist url.
Can you possibly add feature to check if the antivirus service is running and can be started or restarted and updated. I don't know if it make sense because I dont know how you program how it works.
I just really want to know if the antivirus service is running and if it is up to date.

I found out that clamd is not starting when e2guardian is stopped and restarted.
What can be done about this ? Can we do our own adjustment somewhere ?

@ugurk Hi. In squidguard I made a category that I called videos, there I put all these domains that contain videos, so I block almost everything and every day I add other domains:
dailymotion.com googlevideo.com i.ytimg.com m.youtube.com metacafe.com netflix.com nflxvideo.net screen.yahoo.com skype.com vimeo.com vine.co 3r2---sn-j5caxupj5-nwvl.googlevideo.com r1---sn-5hoxuj5cax-wv6.googlevideo.com r1---sn-hp57kn6l.googlevideo.com r1---sn-hp57knsl.googlevideo.com r1---sn-hp57yn7y.googlevideo.com r1---sn-hp57yne7.googlevideo.com r1---sn-hp57ynes.googlevideo.com r1---sn-j5caxupj5-nwve.googlevideo.com r1---sn-j5caxupj5-nwvl.googlevideo.com r2---sn-5hoxuj5cax-nwv6.googlevideo.com r2---sn-hp57kn7z.googlevideo.com r2---sn-hp57knlr.googlevideo.com r2---sn-hp57knzz.googlevideo.com r2---sn-hp57yne6.googlevideo.com r2---sn-hp57ynee.googlevideo.com r2---sn-hp57ynez.googlevideo.com r2---sn-j5caxupj5-nwve.googlevideo.com r2---sn-q4f7sn7k.googlevideo.com r3---sn-5hoxuj5cax-nwv6.googlevideo.com r3---sn-hp57kn7s.googlevideo.com r3---sn-j5caxupj5-nwve.googlevideo.com r3---sn-j5caxupj5-nwvl.googlevideo.com r4---sn-5hoxuj5cax-nwv6.googlevideo.com r4---sn-j5caxupj5-nwve.googlevideo.com r4---sn-j5caxupj5-nwvl.googlevideo.com r5---sn-hp57knls.googlevideo.com r5---sn-hp57ynez.googlevideo.com r5---sn-j5caxupj5-nwve.googlevideo.com r5---sn-j5caxupj5-nwvl.googlevideo.com r6---sn-hp57kn7l.googlevideo.com r6---sn-hp57knz6.googlevideo.com

@pfsensation @marcelloc
does anyone had a success in setting up e2g in multiwan environment?
currently having latest pfsense + latest e2g...when i enable e2g all traffic are routed to "default" wan... -
Hi to everybody, my name is Marco and i'm a new in this forum.
I used pfsense from many years as simple router, firewall, openvpn server and load balancing server.Now i'm trying to proxy and filter contents with Squid and e2guardian.
First of all i want to thanks @marcelloc for his great work with the porting of e2guardian. Marcello i hope that you and other users can help me, i'm trying to obtain my goal from many days, with no results.I have a pfsense box with Squid and e2guardian installed. In the same lan there is a samba4 LDAP.
My goal is to have from 2 to 4 users0s groups in LDAP that can browse the web with LDAP authentication on proxy with different e2guardian ACL based on content list (like Shalla's Blacklist).
The situation now is that i can autenthicate with the LDAP users but e2guardian seems not to recognize the correct LDAP group and so the applied filter list is wrong. Can you help me?
If is not possible is ok to have just 2 list: the first, for unauthenticated users, with filtered navigation, and the second, for some autenticathed ldap users, with unfiltered navigation.
Hope @marcelloc o someone can help me.
Good work, and byeee ;-)

@Albertopfsense
Same problem here.@Albertopfsense I found how to revert to show official packages again.
Just execute the command below with SSH access or by Diagnostic | Command Prompt.
rm /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/Unofficial.conf -
@Albertopfsense Before Patch, after fetch apply. Later pfsense pc restart.
-
@kenpachizaraki E2guardian not work multiwan, unfortunately. Only failover working.

Hello all,

PFA of an error message .If you have MITM enabled, you need to install the CA certificate on the client machine. As E2 Guardian essentially breaks the HTTPS encryption.

Is there a way to download the E2Guardian package and install it offline ?
