Guys,
I'm looking for an open source solution to this problem...
1. Using Squid as a proxy (works fine)
2. Authenticate users off Novell e-directory (works fine)
3. filter content using blacklists (works fine)
4. filter content based on user access - a field in LDAP (no idea how
to get this to work)
What I need is that Joe Manager is in group 'god' so he gets access
to everything. While Mary Engineer is in group 'technical' and 'news' so
she only gets access to sites that are the technical and news whitelists,
BUT if the site is in the blacklists it gets blocked regardless of group.
I'm stuck on how to get a filter solution that will query LDAP to get
the groups for the users and then filter on that. Or is this something that
should be done by Squid.
I'm open to suggestions.
Bill Holder
Senior IT Engineer
