Re: [squid-users] acl help

hi all

ok, i've managed to sort this out myself.

looks like it was the syntax of the text files i had created

heres's the solution

i created the two ACL's pointing to different txt files

acl files url_regex -i "/usr/local/squid/etc/banned-files.txt"
acl files url_regex -i "/usr/local/squid/etc/banned-sites.txt"
acl banned-clients src -i "/usr/local/squid/etc/banned-clients.txt"

and the sytnax of the files are

banned-clients.txt
::::::::::::::
146.141.59.230
146.141.59.231
146.141.59.232
146.141.59.233
146.141.59.234
146.141.59.235
146.141.59.236

banned-files.txt
::::::::::::::
\.mpeg$
\.mpg$
\.avi$
\.wmv$
\.mp3$
\.rm$
\.asf$

banned-sites.txt
::::::::::::::
www.highveld.co.za/planet947/streaming.asp
209.245.59.17
streamload.com

working like a charm!!!!!
