You can then access the new panel in the server-manager. The first time you access it, you might have an empty category list. Just click the save button at the bottom of the page, wait a few minutes and try again (the list is empty because categories hasn't been downloaded yet). Now, you should be able to enable URL and AV filtering, and choose which categories you want to block. The next settings modification might take a long time (several minutes, you may also have a timeout error displayed). This is expected and is because squidGuard databases need to be compiled. After this, settings change should be fast.

===Customize category lists===

===Customize category lists===

Category lists are simple text files in /var/lib/squidGuard/blacklists. Each category is a directory, and each directory may have a file named '''domains''' and another named '''urls'''. Each directory in /var/lib/squidGuard/blacklists will be displayed in the panel of the server-manager, except if it's listed in the DisabledCategories prop. You can see which categories are disabled with:

  db configuration getprop squidguard DisabledCategories

This lets you ignore some useless categories, and hide them from the panel.

The default config update all the categories each night. This is done in the cron job /etc/cron.daily/squidGuard, which calls /etc/e-smith/events/actions/squidguard-update-databases. If you don't want to auto update those lists, you can disable this feature:

You can add your own categories. If they don't already exists, they won't be deleted or modified by the update feature.

With the default configuration, denied requests are redirected to https://hostname.domain.tld/squidGuard/cgi-bin/blocked.cgi with various parameters (like IP address, username, client group, category etc...). Username will be empty (only -), this is because squid authentication is disabled. If you enable squid authentication (with custom templates), you'll be able to log username. The downside is that you'll have to configure all your browsers to use squid as proxy, because authentication is not compatible with transparent proxying.

If you want to change the blocked page, you can. First, copye the default page to another name:

Now, you can edit this new file to your need. Then, just select it as the default blocked page:

===MySQL logs===

===MySQL logs===

MySQL loging of clients requests is handled by a independent daemon called squid-db-logd. It monitors squid access log and squidGuard deny log in real time, parse it and put everything in the database called squid_log. In this database, the table access_log list all the access while the deny_log only list denied pages. This feature may need a lot of disk space. On a busy server, you can easily reach 3GB / month only for the database (and more for the dump when you backup your server). To limit the needed space, a cron job rotate and compress the access_log and deny_log tables each month. Old tables are also removed. The default config keeps one year of log. You can change this setting with (value is in day and default is 365)

===Panel and translation===

For now, this contrib is not available for translation in pootle (because it's in our own GIT repo). If you want to help with translation, you can get the file /etc/e-smith/locale/en-us/etc/e-smith/web/functions/webfilter translate it, and send it back to us by mail at tech @ firewall-services . com
