      Hello,

      I got pfsense 2.3.4. I have setup captive portal and squid+squidguard to block sites.
      mostly for mature, drugs, violent e.t.c. I'm using the blacklist http://www.shallalist.de/Downloads/shallalist.tar.gz.

      Everything is working fine but I need some help to block/allow spesific site.

      I want to block e.g. the site www.in.gr, www.facebook.com, www.youtube.com . I go to
      target categories, create a new entry (domain list = in.gr, facebook.com etc) and save.
      Then I go to Common ALC, expand target rule list and choose deny for my above created entry.

      but pfsense won't block any sites I have enter. I have tried to restart services reinstall all but nothing.
      It blocks only sites that are in blacklist (http://www.shallalist.de/Downloads/shallalist.tar.gz.)

      Any help on this..

      Thanks

        This is not really a firewall issue per se.

        After you make changes in squidguard, you must go back to the General Settings page and click the Apply button or your changes will not take effect.
