As far as I can say that at the moment the "Integrations" box isn't working. So put the commands squidguard creates manually in "custom options":

redirect_program /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c /usr/local/etc/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf
redirector_bypass on
redirect_children 8

marcelloc

Just updated squid3 package to version 2.0.2 to fix integration erros.

Please update,test and feedback :)

harish

yes now its working after custom option.

Hi all,

After looking for some options o squid-wiki, I've included dynamic update options to cache tab on pkg v 2.0.3

Setting the refresh_pattern to -1 is not a really good solution because it always downloads the file even if the user aborted it. This causes that squid downloads most of the time on its own which causes more traffic usage for squid as it saves. it is better to set some values according to the update size:


Finish transfer if less than x KB remaining: 102400
Abort transfer if more than x KB remaining: 102400
Finish transfer if more than x % finished: 60

These are the same values you can set in squid - traffic mangt.
What is happening if I enable squid windows update and set different values on the mngt tab ?

What do you use as refresh pattern for the windows updates ? I am using these for squid2


refresh_pattern -i .*microsoft\.com/.*\.(cab|exe|msi|msp) 259200 100% 259200 override-expire override-lastmod reload-into-ims ignore-reload ignore-no-cache ignore-private;
refresh_pattern -i .*windowsupdate\.com/.*\.(cab|exe|msi|msp) 259200 100% 259200 override-expire override-lastmod reload-into-ims ignore-reload ignore-no-cache ignore-private;

Thanks :-)

@Marcelloc Nice work man!!! I do have a request/wish for this… Would it be possible to setup the GUI to have squid-reserve run as a separate process? This would allow it to have its own options and the log file could be separate. I created a separate conf file and added some code to the squid.inc so it would start with squid processes on my box. Basically where it starts/stop the service and creates the squid.sh file, i added another like to include my squid-reverse.conf.

just a thought when you have "free" time...

Nothing, I just force range_offset_limit -1 when updates are set, all traffic mgmt are configured by users.

Just the suggested by wiki

refresh_pattern -i microsoft.com/.*\.(cab|exe|ms[i|u|f]|asf|wm[v|a]|dat|zip) 4320 80% 43200 reload-into-ims
refresh_pattern -i windowsupdate.com/.*\.(cab|exe|ms[i|u|f]|asf|wm[v|a]|dat|zip) 4320 80% 43200 reload-into-ims

Hi cino,

I'ts a good idea but I have no idea how services tab could identify these two squid processes?

Good point! here is the output of mine… Keep in mind when I have squid.inc, i put the full path for path conf files... if there is a shutdown, reconfigure; i included the full path to the conf in the syantx

Ok. Let's try to config it.

I did a lot of changes on squid.inc for this package. Can you try to reapply you patch on current config or show me what you did?

Getting this error. Did a clean pfSense install. SquidGuard won't start either.. as Squid fails to start.

You running squid is Version 2.7.STABLE9.

What version of pfsense are you using?

Take a look on first posts of this thread to see package install sequence.

I clean installed this version
2.0.1-RELEASE (amd64)
built on Mon Dec 12 18:16:13 EST 2011

Then went into packages and installed squid3 first. Same settings I have been using for over a year. Nothing has changed. I reinstalled pfSense again and again tried with your latest package.. same issue.

@ccesario:

Hi guys,

I'm testing new squid3 package, and after install it, I'm having a lot errors in http connections, squid show me a lot 'TCP_MISS/503'. This happen often in forms posts, so I need re-send form ou press F5.
I tested exhaustively the squid-2.7.9_1 + squidGuard and problem no happen. So I too tested exhaustively the squid3 + SquidGuard, and I give this problem.

All squid versions have the same config. And this problem only occurs in 'Transparent Mode'

Somebdoy can please test it and report the results?!

Thanks

Hi,

so I post what I did and while I am doing this it will take more than one minute. (Remember your pm to me).

I installed squid3 package and sent myself personal messages. It took all times very long till they get sent - but that's probably a forum issue. Nothing uncommon in access.log.

After that installed squidguard - it break squid3 and squidguard so I uninstalled squid3 and reinstalled squid3. after that both were running. I created a target in squidguard to block google.de and it is working. Other pages can be visited. Nothing uncommon and not TCP_MISS/503 in access.log

I sent some personal messages myself and no problem.

Now I am writing this post and we will see what happens.

PS: I did not enable any additional options on squid - just basic settings on a VM to test.

–-- EDIT ----
Got the same error as ccesario:

When enabling all cache options (window supdates and so on) the squid.conf is not correctly formatted and needs some new lines before "range offset limit":

range_offset_limit -1
refresh_pattern -i microsoft.com/.*\.(cab|exe|ms[i|u|f]|asf|wm[v|a]|dat|zip) 4320 80% 43200 reload-into-ims
refresh_pattern -i windowsupdate.com/.*\.(cab|exe|ms[i|u|f]|asf|wm[v|a]|dat|zip) 4320 80% 43200 reload-into-ims
refresh_pattern -i my.windowsupdate.website.com/.*\.(cab|exe|ms[i|u|f]|asf|wm[v|a]|dat|zip) 4320 80% 43200 reload-into-imsrange_offset_limit -1

maximum_object_size_in_memory 256 KB

Further I would make the other pattern case insensitive, too ( -i )

An what about the subdomains of microsoft.com ? Are they covered with this regex ?
Or better put .* in front like:


refresh_pattern -i .*\.microsoft.com/.*\.(cab|exe|ms[i|u|f]|asf|wm[v|a]|dat|zip)
refresh_pattern -i .*\.windowsupdate.com/.*\.(cab|exe|ms[i|u|f]|asf|wm[v|a]|dat|zip)

Further I didn't have any luck with a short test on caching youtube.com videos.
access.log shows "x-flv". Perhaps add this format to the config:

refresh_pattern -i .*\.(x-flv|flv) 10080 90% 999999 ignore-no-cache override-expire ignore-private

Thanks, I'll fix it.

On squid -> cache this:

set Maximum download size on 'traffic mgmt' squid tab to a value that fits patters your are applying.
Microsoft may need 200Mb and youtube 4GB.

should be probably renamed to:


set Maximum object size on 'cache' squid tab to a value that fits pattern your are applying.
Microsoft may need 200Mb and youtube 4GB.

Question:
Could you add an option to change the time an object should be in cache ?
At the moment it is 4320 80% 43200. Perhaps someone likes to increase that.

But probably if someone needs this he should create his custom options itself and the "click and save" GUI ist just for people who do not want to do to much work on squid and refresh_pattern :-)

@Nachtfalke:

On squid -> cache this:

set Maximum download size on 'traffic mgmt' squid tab to a value that fits patters your are applying.
Microsoft may need 200Mb and youtube 4GB.

should be probably renamed to:


set Maximum object size on 'cache' squid tab to a value that fits pattern your are applying.
Microsoft may need 200Mb and youtube 4GB.

The Maximum download size is on 'traffic mgmt' tab
