I just did setup my first Squid Conf.
I love it already. ^^
But, well I have a new problem now
I did define:
acl Badwords url_regex -i "/usr/local/etc/words.squid"
and
http_access deny Badwords
Since I thought I could change the words.squid file while squid was
running. I tryed that. And that didnt really work..
So, my question now is.
Is this possible? or do I have to restart Squid every time that the words
file chances?
squid -kcheck
squid -kreconfigure
I always run the check in case I made a fluff of a file!
The reconfigure simply tells squid to reread all is config files!

Just a note on that Badwords.
You do realize you are letting yourself into a nightmare swamp of
possibilities with a filter like that?
Defining all possible bad words without getting any non-bad has been a
major hair loss of many an admin just for starters. Then there is the
ongoing battle with users when they discover you are doing it this way.
If you care to list the categories of content you are required to block
we may have alternatives that are easier to work with.
