Hello squid users,

we did install Kaspersky Antivirus for Proxy on our existing corporate proxy server, which is Squid 2.6.STABLE5 running on Debian 4.0 server. We also use SquidGuard for URL-filtering:

*redirect_program /usr/bin/squidGuard -c /etc/squid/squidGuard.conf*

Kaspersky antivirus is binded per ICAP interface to Squid. After installation of Kaspersky antivirus, SquidGuard is not effective anymore -> the bad websites are not blocked, however the appropriate entries are logged in the blocked.log file. Searching for squid config statement causing this problem i did localize:

*icap_enable on*

As far as i disable this configuration option squidGuards blocks again.

I other words the redirector and ICAP-redirector seem to dislike each other...

Any ideas, how we can run both redirectors together?

If you do not get better suggestions, I would try Squid3. If you run
into ICAP problems with Squid3, we should be able to fix them.


Thanks a lot... Squid3 seems to be still in the developement phase and is not stable enough for productive environment. Due to this fact we can't use it ;o(

Our workaround, using SquidGuard binded with standard squid redirector_programm statement and at the same time "Kaspersky antivirus for proxy, binded as ICAP redirector is: Running two instances of squid on the same server. The first one is on the internet front and binds only SquidGuard running with no_cache mode. The second instance uses the first as parent_proxy, does Active Directory user authentication, binds Kaspersky per ICAP, bandwith management, cache, etc. It seems to work well. The only disadvantage is the increased configuration and administration complexity.
