Filter porn, virus's and ads with squid3, HAVP, Dansguardian and privoxy.

Any good documentation on just using Squid and Dansguardian or point me to the best thread because everything I have tried fails.
Did you tried this?

Thank you, I figured out what was wrong … :-)
Now to figure out anti-virus.

just select clamdscan on system -> dansguardian -> general and save config

I did just that but then Danguardian pops up with a message stating it is blocking the site because it can not scan it, Categories: Content scan. What else needs to be done; do I also need to disable a categories filter?
Thanks!

Force a frashclam update on console and then restart dansguardian(or save config)

Did that, same response - website blocked, unable to scan content…
In addition, if I turn on clamdscan, and then turn it off because it is not working properly yet, I have to reboot the box for internet connectivity to be restored.
Should I try to enable it and reboot?

Are you on latest dansguardian package version?

I see other people have had this problem, but nothing sticks out yet.

Marcello,
I tried doing this and the download was successful, however, the deny page for Cisco is still displayed when clamdscan is activated.

Problem resolved…
I made a change thinking that was the problem for something else but it wasn't and caused a problem with clamdscan working properly. Now everything is working.

Hi all,
I followed this, and got it to work, but found that things eventually slowed to a crawl. I think my box may be under powered, but for me, blocking Ads network wide would be enough.
Can privoxy work standalone? I get an error in my browser when I try to NAT directly to 8118 :
invalid header received from client
Privoxy is listening on localhost:8118
I would appreciate any tips.

Did you tried only dansguarguardian (with clamav enabled) + squid?
-
No I didn't - I thought privoxy would be more light weight, if I only need to block ads…
-
You are having issues using only privoxy?
-
Sorry for the delay in my reply.
Yes, I was receiving an error message for every page I tried to browse when I pointed the NAT rule directly to port 8118 (Privoxy):
"invalid header received from client"
I finally installed Squid3 again, and set 8118 as the parent. I still wasn't having any luck until I changed Squid to transparent mode and eliminated the NAT rule to 8118.
Now things seem to be working, but I'm running Squid when I don't think I should need to for a Privoxy only setup.

I get the following error when trying to start privoxy:
Starting privoxy.
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libpcre.so.0" not found, required by "privoxy"Has anyone else had this? What did you do to resolve the issue?
thanks

When adding the privoxy package, here is a warning I get… is there a privoxy version that uses pcre-8.32?
Fetching ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/privoxy.tbz... Done.
pkg_add: warning: package 'privoxy-3.0.16_1' requires 'pcre-8.02', but 'pcre-8.32' is installed -
I follwed the steps on the first post and got everything working w/o a hitch.
I also tried just the Dansguardian -> squid method which worked but for some reason it was much slower and didnt block any ads vs the dansquardian -> squid-> HAVP-> privoxy method (which makes no sense conceptually) and i could never get dansguardian's built in clamd to work properly (which also makes no sense)
besure to see this on the webupload bug fix as well http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,58442.15.html (which works as this post was sucessful)

I had this issue w/ a brand new install on another box just now. do a "find / -name libpcre.so.0" and ls -l the files, you should see that they're linked to libpcre.so.3, create a sym link to libpcre.so.0 instead and it should solve the privoxy issue. I have no idea if the new symlink location will screw anything else up. so far it hasn't.
Another tidbit is that you have to install dansguardian first before you install squid3 (if you want to use squid3). Dasguardian will install squid 2.7.x as a dependency which will cause pfsense to revert to using the older version if you have squid3 installed beforehand.
