ACL's and logfiles

Hi everybody,

3 questions...
I am running squid 2.3.stable1, on RedHat 6.0,
working AOK with 100 users.

1) I have an ACL for users that can only connect from 16:40 to 24:00.
In my squid.conf ---->
acl restricted_users proxy_auth "path to restricted_users file"
acl day_time time 00:00-11:59 12:00-16:40
http_access deny restricted_users day_time

This does not work properly, they can connect in the morning
(8-12am) as well. Anyone have an idea what I might be doing wrong here ?
This is the only ACL in the .conf file.

2) I have been asked to restrict users from visiting certain pornographic
sites ---> is this possible with ACL entries ?
If so, how can I achieve this ?
(or would it be better to use squidGard for this ?)

3) I need to delete some entries from the logfiles...
We use a program on a NT server that send SMS for outstanding calls, this
program has a userid (EMA) and password (********) on squid for connecting
to the web (and does this +- 70 times a day!)
I will only do stats on the squid logs once a month, is it possible to
delete the complete lines that this id generated in the logfiles ?
What happens if I delete only the userid and ip addy from the logfiles,
will this stuff up the stats ?

Quite a mouthful, and it may sound stupid to you ppl, but newbies need lots
of help!

Thanks in advance
Dewald
