RE: [squid-users] Domain Admins can't access

Hi Scott

Thanks for the response :) I tried what you suggested, but with that in
my squid.conf file I cannot get the service to start. Nothing shows up
in /var/log/messages, or cache.log. Any ideas?

You are correct with what I'm trying to do. Only people who belong to
the "internet" security group in AD should be permitted access to the
internet, with the exception of the blacklisted URLs for regular
expression matching. By default, everyone else should be denied access.
Down the road I will likely start doing whitelists for specific
departments so they can only access the sites they require.

I think the biggest issue you have is actually highlighted in your
config..
You have

And that is the important part of all this.

Just observations but here is my outlook on your config.

====
http_access allow AD_group_internet
Would appear that you are trying to check for a user (external helper
called
with %LOGIN) without checking the external authenticator "ntlm" anywhere
along the check (I have never used ntlm so this could be wrong).

====
http_access allow AD_group_internet
Is before your safe_port check which means safe_ports are never used,
access
can be achieved to every port out there, including mail servers etc.

====
http_access deny ad_group_domain_users
Denies users using %LOGIN which isn't checked first (see my statement
above
about ntlm... Never used it)

====
acl localnet src 192.168.0.0/16 # RFC1918 possible internal network
http_access allow localnet
Would allow every user on your network (guessing this subnet is your
network) to access the proxy. If a user isn't in your AD server (or your
helper returns the wrong result) and isn't a member of one of your ntdom
groups, they have access to the proxy and can browse without
restriction.

===
acl AD_group_internet external ntdom internet
AND
acl AD_group_domain_users external ntdom
"/etc/squid/ad_group_domain_users"
seem to call your external helper quite differently, I don't know what
your
helper does so I assume either will work.

===
I have included a basic ACL config that should match onto what your
trying
to achieve (From what I can see in your config). It's by no means
complete
but might clear up some of your issues. I doesn't include your external
helper definitions or basic config entries like auth helpers, safe ports
etc.

Just a heads up. I am taking some wild guesses about what your actual
setup
is meant to be doing but the below seems fairly logical.

acl CONNECT method CONNECT

http_access allow manager localhost
http_access deny manager

# Deny bad ports
http_access deny !Safe_ports
http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports

# Deny site in the blocked_websites list
acl blocked_websites url_regex "/etc/squid/blocked_websites"
http_access deny blocked_websites

# Allow authenticated users in the INTERNET group on our network access
acl localnet src 192.168.0.0/16 # RFC1918 possible internal network
acl AD_group_internet external ntdom internet # Internet group members
http_access allow localnet ntlm AD_group_internet

# ?? anybody not in "INTERNET" group would be denied after this.
#acl AD_group_domain_users external ntdom
"/etc/squid/ad_group_domain_users"
#http_access deny ntlm AD_group_domain_users

http_access deny all

Hopefully this wild bit of guessing will clear up some of the issues you
are
seeing and give some feedback into what is actually going wrong. Of
course,
if I am reading into what you are doing wrongly, then I am more than
happy
to stand corrected on the sideline. :)
