Hello list, For a time I'm searching web and squid lists for a solution for my case. I need to check users age when they try to access some sites like Orkut. In our environment we have a LDAP directory when user data is stored and I can search for user personal data. I found the external_acl is the best way to do this. IP-AUTH solution seens to help, but in our case we use thin-clients and have all the same ip of server. Transparent proxy is configured to avoid users deconfigure browser proxy settings and skip proxy rules. Someone can have a idea how can I implement this?
1) block web access for the people sending requests to the squid interception catching port. Send them to a page indicating they require the proxy settings and how to set back to the correct values.
2) implement WPAD to let people use 'auto-detect' in their browser instead of explicit settings. Will reduce the chances of people seeing the proxy issued and thinking to remove. Also reduces maintenance hassles when proxy changes.
3) configure regular user auth alongside the external helper checking ages. Amos -- Please be using Current Stable Squid 2.7.STABLE6 or 3.0.STABLE14 Current Beta Squid 3.1.0.7
