      Please, help
      is there tutorial (how to or something) to setup proxy?
      I have setup transparent proxy, but i need to add every url to blacklist, i just want to simple block all porn and gambling.

      And yes, does multiple WANs (load balancing) work over proxy? as i seen all traffic is going over wan.

      thanks

        The easy way is to use opendns as your dns server (Then you don't need a proxy).
        Use SquidGuard and download http://www.shallalist.de/Downloads/shallalist.tar.gz and then download and follow this video guide http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TZX50TIF extra info on http://diskatel.narod.ru/sgquick.htm

        And yes, does multiple WANs (load balancing) work over proxy? as i seen all traffic is going over wan.

        Currently Squid can't make use of multi wan. So maybe the opendns solution is best for you.

            Create a free account on www.opendns.org
            Assign your ip's under your account.

            On pfSense You go to System -> General Setup
            Under DNS Servers you add following ip's
            208.67.222.222
            208.67.220.220
            and tick "Allow DNS server list to be overridden by DHCP/PPP on WAN"

                  Is this video guide available form other site than megaupload?

                      TNX!

                      It's not that, I don't like to install software to download from sites. There is always potential thereat in that.

                          hi

                          if im not mistaken, before you can download from megaupload, you should install their toolbar.

                          thanks

                            You can. But you dont have to.

                              in some banana countries, yes, you have to :)

                              and, yes it works fine over open dns, and over squid, but cant support multiple WANs  ??? :-\
