Hi

Why is necessary an additional tool for squid to block web sites like
SquidGuard or DansGuardian? is there an issue with performance?

You're completly mistaken. DansGuardian and SquidGuard are OPTIONAL tools, they are not REQUIRED.

Squid implements several Access List (ACL) types which can be used to apply SEVERAL different and probably complex browsing policies. It cannot be that easy to implement very complex policies, but it's completly possible without using any other optional tool, like SquidGuard, DansGuardian or others.

Those tools, tough, can improve cpu usage on big and complex policies, and make things easier for implementing those complex policies.

   But ... they are NOT required as you're thinking.

If you understand how squid ACL works, if you can place your policy in a logical way, then you can translate this to squid ACLS and implement them.
