Unofficial E2guardian package for pfSense
-
Hi Marcello,
E2Guardian need to be squid
not working alone
-
It works with and without squid. Check your config on GUI, select direct mode under daemon tab. Save and apply.
A good clue on what is going wrong is running daemon on console to see it's complaint.

Hi Marcello,
I ran the system and now I'm doing some tests. When I close the machine and open it, I get this error. services are all started
2. Responsibility is how to redirect https: sites to the block page.Mar 31 10:05:24 php-cgi rc.bootup: [E2guardian] Installed but not started. Not installing 'nat' rules.

I have this screencast cast showing e2guardian options. It's in Portuguese but I think it will help you.

It returns to http://sys-squad.com/login refardless of my understanding portuguese or not ;)
Not that i am not new/familar with e2guardian and dansguardian, but have used it on another firewall solution.
A question is that a long time a go when dansguardian still was maintained is ident on each client and different lists, is this possible today?
-
Awesome, let me know how it goes.
It's working at home too. I have IP authentication enabled, site SSL REGEX and URL MODIFY for all search engines enabled.
Tested with ssl filter and with interception only.
Hmm… Interesting. I have tried with the exact same settings but have been unable to get it working. However, keep in mind that I am using Squid as a upstream proxy. In 4.x I was able to just use SSL Regex and force a group of users onto Youtube Restricted mode. Do you have any idea what it could be? It seems weird. When I try from a mobile and go to m.youtube.com it works after sometime, however it can be bypassed by going incognito. There must be something that broke after the update, it's just not working as well as it used to.
Do you have any suggestions? @Marcelloc

Weak but possible. If you have control on what runs on client because protocol answers can be easily forged by most ident client.

Something that I see that changes test results are browsers cache. I guess you can reopen the ticket on e2guardian project to see what developers suggest.

The site asks for a register even for free screencasts. It could be translated by the browser or use Facebook or Goole authentication.

Re-opened, let's see what they say. It's strange though, you managed to get it working. But I tried with both Chrome and IE, no joy. I even tried messing with setting up the proxy explicitly but it still doesn't work. Even though the client is getting the fake cert.

Try with clients on a specific group and on default group.
I'm seeing that some config works better out of default group.If you can, test unrestricted an deny all group mode to see if it's working fine.

I'm testing Youtube restricted with a specific group, I can't enable the restricted mode on the default group as that would drive all the adults crazy. Anything other than cartoons, or kiddy videos will be blocked on Youtube xD
If it is working for you on the default group. It maybe a problem with the pfSense package and the v5 configuration updates. I have re-opened the issue on Github on the official repo. Let's see what Philip/Frederic come up with.
Thanks for all your hard work Marcello!

When i come home tomorrow i will enable e2guardian and see and upgrade pfsense too.

Try adding all your network cidr on a group different from default. IIRC, this was one of the tests I did.

Just tried this, unfortunately still no joy on the Desktop. Weird… I have tried multiple machines / VM's, none of them went to restricted mode. I don't know what would be the best way to log if the cname rewriting is working, I guess that would help.

Go for it, I upgraded today to 2.4.3, had to re-install E2 Guardian after the update, but since then it's been running without any major hiccups.

I am glad the maintainer of this modification and you are so active and actually use it too ;)

I wonder also if this e2guardian upgrades to the latest 5.0 beta ?
This upstream proxy in beta 5.0 will be useful for me because of HTTPSproxy and privoxy.
If you do not download the certificate it do not matter you can still browse internet but not be able to filter https but it filter ads on http. -

Can you check out if this is real or fake squidblacklist

Looks interesting, currently by default we're using ShallaList. If this one is better, it may be worth thinking about switching. Even though E2 Guardian does content scanning, having a good black list means it can save resources. If there are any blacklisted sites, it will block it immediately without spending precious CPU resources scanning the contents of the page.
@Marcelloc, what do you think? I know you've got a little VM environment setup for testing, would this work without causing any major issues? I'd try it myself, but I am out today, and have work tomorrow as the holidays are over.
