      We've got some customers for whom we've set up a SquidGuard hack on a FreeBSD box with a CGI for them to control it. It would be lovely to switch them over to pfSense. A requirement from my boss is the ability to have a separate login which only has access to the SquidGuard config. (don't want the unblooded warriors messing with the firewall rules). So I was quite excited to see the new user manager.

      In my current version (2.0 b4 Oct 13) there does not appear to be a privilege available for either the Squid or SquidGuard packages.

      Is it the case that it is the responsibility of the package to define a privilege set? In which case, I just need to wait for the package maintainers.

      Is the privilege system suppose to pick up on the addition of menu items to the GUI? In which case, any thots as to why the two new "Service" menu items don't appear as:

      WebCfg - Services:Proxy Server
      WebCfg - Services:Proxy Filter
      

      Thanks.

          The packages hook into the privilege system quite a bit differently than normal pages. I'm not sure if any packages have user permissions right now. I think there is support in the code for them, but I'm not sure any of the packages have actually been updated to take advantage of it.
