The simplest way to achieve this would probably be the so called "external ACLs". You would send the user name and the URL (if possible - haven't tried that) to an external script. The script in turn would decide whether this URL is acceptable for this user or not. The script could be querying a database of text file and use regular expressions and whatever magic you like. Sounds like a Perl job but the implementation can probably be done in any decent (scripting) language. A pure Squid solution would be to use a file for every user and use that file as input for ACLs. But then you would need to hardwire all the users in your squid.conf which is probably not desirable. Christoph -- ~ ~ ~ ".signature" [Modified] 3 lines --100%-- 3,41 All
