Squid + Squidguard: Not working in Time-Based ACL

[xerxes]

Hello.. I set up under Times then made two ACLs. BTW, I have only one source IP since after pfsense where one router lies.

QUESTION: How would I allow time-based shifting of ACL? or.. is this kind of set-up realistic?

Hope to hear from you guys in here..THanks in advance.

Hello xerxes

I just got my pfsense installed yesterday I think I set it up the same way you are asking.
I have setup web browsing for 8am - 10pm only.

I did this in a few simple steps.

Installed Squid and content filter

Under Proxy Server
Auth settings Tab  –-> Authentication method: local
Local Users Tab ---> create user account

Under Proxy Filter
Time Tab

Name: time
Values: Time type Days   Date or Date range Time range
          Weekly            All        Left blank                08:00-20:00  (this is the time you want access granted)

Description: Time

ACL Tab
Name: time
Source IP adresses and domains: 'username'  (be sure to have the single quotes)
Time: (select time or whatever you called your setting)
Destination: Set your filter optiosn here

Other options are optional.

Then save and be sure to apply the settings afterwards.  Then you should be good to go.  I just got this setup and it works like a charm.
