Unofficial E2guardian package for pfSense
-
@Mr.:
Ok, I've only selected porn (pic8).
In config, it says this (txt).
The GUI package does not include any .Include to text fields under ACL tab. All you see are default configuration for a stock e2guardian bsd binaries.
All you select under include combo will reflect on filtergroup file, that does not appears on GUI.
So what do I need to do to make it work?

What I suggested on one of the first topics. Check config on all tabs if you still are getting erros.
The selected itens on include are present on resulting config file under /usr/local/etc/e2guardian/
That adult/domains erros probably are uncomment on your site deny text field.

Sorry, what you suggested I did multiple times in a row, Marcello.
I have uninstalled it and simply conclude it doesn't work.

What erros do you get? Same as before? Did you tried to comment include acls that does not exists on file system?

hi marcelloc,
could you possible update your setup and configuration procedure so that it is up to date and tidy up.
On a clean install, just save setup on GUI and use.
With previous install, check error messages.I mean, could you include in your setup guide / instruction how to have it http and https filtering with wpad so we can make it successfully running.

Thank you for all your help, dear Marcello ;D
I have decided to let it rest for a while, wait until perhaps a good tutorial comes along (I understand you are busy too) and then try again some day. For now it simply doesn't work.
Viva Brasil ;)

I disagree, it works really nice. Hope you can get it working some day.
bye :)

Marcelloc,
Yes, I read that and it is pointing to https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=128116.msg730725#msg730725.
It is somewhat hard to follow for novice like me. Which is why I requested if you could kindly make it more clear and easier to follow.
Its really hard to follow with all the discussions discussed here especially if the read cannot relate or follow to the setup or configuration being discussed.I have installed your unofficial e2guardian and wpad through the pfsense package manager in gui. but after that I cannot make it work with http and https filtering with wpad. I am not sure what to do with the configuration, additional firewall rules, etc.

If you are on i386 architecture, uninstall/reinstall the package or run pkg install openssl on console. The was missing and without it, e2guardian does not start.
If you know how to install from freebsd repo, the result will be the same.

Hi Marcelloc,
I just would like to clarify coz I am confused.
1. Is E2Guardian a replacement for squidguard or squid ?
2. Do I need to install Squid package if I use E2Guardian ?
3. If I need to install Squid package, do I need to enable the Transparent proxy and SSL MITM Filtering in Squid Proxy configuration ? -
1. Is E2Guardian a replacement for squidguard or squid ?
Full replacement for squidguard with more features.
2. Do I need to install Squid package if I use E2Guardian ?
If you do not need authentication or just ip authentication and no transparent proxy for ssl then you need only e2guardian package
l
3. If I need to install Squid package, do I need to enable the Transparent proxy and SSL MITM Filtering in Squid Proxy configuration ?If you plan to transparent proxy ssl, then you need to enable splice all and configure cache peer to send traffic to e2guardian.

Hi Marcelloc
I appreciate all the work you are doing with e2guardian. I have be playing for awhile and I finally got it working.
I am a novice with pfsense so it took me awhile to figure some things out. One thing I seemed to have a problem with is file permissions. Even when I install e2guardian on a fresh installed pfsense, there where file permission problems. One was the log file and the other was the directory where temp ssl certs where stored, not sure if I am saying this correctly or not. After I figured out how to change file and directory permissions I got everythinf to work. I am using MITM filtering by the way.
So for what ever it is worth. GREAT WORK MARCELLOC! :) -
Hey Marcello,
I'm sure you missed me. :P
Can you please look into caching content that E2Guardian has MITM'd? Using Squid directly doesn't seem to work due to them not using SAN on forged certificates. If you could add a workaround that would be amazing, for now and the future. Because for now even with MITM turned on, via E2Guardian, I have only been able to make Squid cache HTTP content, not HTTPS.
This makes caching slightly redundant as most websites have or are moving to HTTPS.
You you understand,
Thanks bro :)
PS: Be proud of urself, I am planning to deploy E2Guardian in a Charity Organisation! However… I am still waiting on that bug with blacklisted sites not showing category to be fixed. Thanks again for porting this over to pfSense, and keeping everything free, accessible and open source!

Did you configured it in sandwich mode?
Squid package +Splice all + transparent proxy + cache peer -> e2guardian with no nat redirect -> automatic parent.

Can you provide some screenshots with these configuration?

But that link says is to filter without MITM. I want to filter with mitm and be able to activate squid cache for http and https.
-
Do not enable MITM for transparent proxy users with a group on e2guardian and keep it intercepting for WPAD/configured users.

I am confused.
I know I cant use mitm in transparent mode but you keep recommending to use squid in transparent mode splice-all to protect e2g from bad form ssl sites because e2g still crashes very often without it.
And now your still recommending to use this mode to be able to use squid cache features for https sites.
So I am concluding that e2g content filtering for https is not available as this wont work with squid cache nor squid splice-all protection.
