      Hi all,

      I'm pretty new to pfsense, but I love it already!

      I was trying to restrict my users by hostname since we use DHCP quite a bit here.  Turns out it doesn't work out-of-the box with version 1.4_2 v.1.9

      I had to change the following:

      in /usr/local/pkg/squidguard_configurator.inc

      Line 858 changes from:

      elseif (is_domain_valid($sr)) $sg_tag->items[] = "domain $sr";

      to:

      elseif (is_domain_valid($sr)) $sg_tag->items[] = "srcdomain $sr";

      I don't know if this breaks "whole domain" ACLs, but it works for what we need.

      I hope others will find this useful!
