Squid acl containing hostnames issue

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello

I work in a secondary school with 5 IT suites each with 20-30 computers. I have created an acl for each room containing the hostnames of the machines for examle, an acl called R32 for room 32 contains:

R32001
R32002
...
R32030

If I set this acl to deny, not all machines are denied access only a random group within the room.

I originally run a GNU/Linux dhcp server to allocate static IPs to all network machines and then created acl's based on the IP ranges of machines in each room. This worked perfectly but now Research Machines who "support" us have demanded I remove the GNU/Linux dhcp server otherwise they will not "support" our installation.

I am therefore looking for the easiest and most time effective method of blocking rooms when required. Hostnames seemed to be the best way.

Any ideas on this issue?

Thanks

Jason
