Title: Cannot configure content filter. - RESOLVED
Post by: jpgillivan on Wednesday 29 April 2009, 02:15:23 am
Endian 2.2rc3

I have enabled the content filter as transparent and it is sort of working. 
1) I cannot seem to change the (-) to a (check) for Uncategorized in the URL Blacklist section.
2) While I can change some of the check marks in to a (-), when I click save they revert back to a check mark.
3) http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30398682/?GT1=43001 is being blocked and www. msnbc.msn.com even thought it is in the whitelist. (www.msn.com is in white list and works)

Any suggestions?

Also, is there a way to customize the content filter?

1 & 2) My answer for this from endian is that even though there is a category, there may not be a blacklist for the caregory, and if there is not a blacklist, it will not toggle or revers back.

3) Its an issue with squid and hapv see http://bugs.endian.it/view.php?id=1083

Thanks, number 3 pointed me in the right direction.  Here are the steps I took.

Using SSH logon to EFW with the root account.  Using the Nano text editor
Nano /etc/squid/squid.conf.tmpl
Placed a hash (#) mark in front of ”header_access Via deny all”, saved file CTRL-O, then exit CTRL-X. 
Restarted squid by using command: restartsquid.py

msnbc.msn.com now works.

(hope this doesn't allow something that it shouldn't)
