Allow access to a site wich is blocked by category (socialnet)

[cipandales]

Hello !

I choose to deny socialnet sites for all internal ip's.
But i need to allow connection to a several sites wich are known as socialnet sites (but, some of them are not - like stumbleupon.com).
I created a destination rules with address of the site i want to allow, change to allow in destination ruleset but does't work.

How can i do that ?

Thank you

I'm assuming that you're doing transparent filtering using squid+squidguard.  If this is the case, you're quite limited in your ability to filter.  You can create an alternative filter set with a group of allowed sites you want and allow those before blocking the rest.  Or, if you need to only allow those sites to a handful of users, you'll want to consider using authenticated filtering instead of transparent since then you can filter by user or user group.  It is also possible to filter by requesting IP, so it really depends on your requirements how to attack this problem.  Spend some quality time with the squidGuard documentation and I'm sure you'll find the solution that best fits your scenario.
