Howto setup SquidGuard 1.4
(check out my howto on SQUID)
Requirements:
* Bison
* Flex
* Berkeley DB V.2.7.7, V3.2.x or 4.x (original site: www.oracle.com/database/berkeley-db/index.html).
Annotation: Berkeley DB version 4.7 gives error messages during compilation. Up to version 4.6 the compilation runs fine.
* A C compiler like GCC
Lets start it:
# apt-get install bison flex
We also need the berkeley-db (recommend is version 4.6)
# wget http://www.xoroz.com/files/db-4.6.21.tar.gz
# tar -zxvf http://www.xoroz.com/files/db-4.6.21.tar.gz
cd db-46..
cd build_unix
../dist/configure –prefix /usr/local/BerkeleyDB
This will build the Berkeley DB library.
# make
To install the Berkeley DB library, enter the following command:
# make install
Update our library (debian)
# echo “/usr/local/BerkeleyDB/lib” >> /etc/ld.so.conf
# ldconfig
Confirm its there
# ldconfig -v | grep libdb-4
(After updating, I erased he entry from ld.so.conf)

Now we can download and install SquidGuard
# wget http://www.squidguard.org/Downloads/squidGuard-1.4.tar.gz
# tar -zxvf squidGuard-1.4.tar.gz
# cd squidGuard-1.4
# ./configure --with-squiduser=proxy (bu default it is: squid)
# make
# make install
Finally:

“Installing squidGuard
Done.
Installing configuration file
Created directory /usr/local/squidGuard/db
Assigned /usr/local/squidGuard/db to user proxy
Created directory /usr/local/squidGuard/log
Assigned /usr/local/squidGuard/log to user proxy
Copied sample squidGuard.conf
/usr/local/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf is now readable
The initial configuration is complete.
Congratulation. SquidGuard is sucessfully installed.”

Very important once you finish make sure you have this line in squid.conf:
redirect_program /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c /usr/local/squidGuard/squidGuard.c
onf
like: redirect_program /squidGuard -c /squidguard.conf
Start squidGuard (will show output to stdout, also check .log for any errors):
# squidGuard -d

Install the Module into Webmin:

https://squidserver:10000

> Webmin > Webmin Configuration > Webmin Module > from Ftp or URl
"http://freshmeat.net/redir/squidguardwebminmod/15907/url_tgz/squidguard-0.91.2.wbm.gz"

Download the blists and put the text version into the /db folder
Then Initiale the blacklists (convert text to .db)
# chown -R /usr/local/squidGuard/db/*
# squidGuard -C all

Appendix:
—-BerkleyDB
To rebuild Berkeley DB, enter:
# make clean
# make
If you change your mind about how Berkeley DB is to be configured, you must start from scratch by entering the following command:
# make realclean
../dist/configure
# make
To uninstall Berkeley DB, enter:
# make uninstall
—-SquidGuard
Installing the blacklists
Copy your blacklists into the desired blacklist directory (default: /usr/local/squidGuard/db) and unpack them. In the table below we assume that the default location is used. Make sure that you have the proper permissions to write to that directory.
# cp /path/to/your/blacklist.tar.gz /usr/local/squidGuard/db
# cd /usr/local/squidGuard/db
# gzip -d blacklist.tar.gz
# tar xfv blacklist.tar
Thru the webmin interface it is really easy to do most of the configuration
Config File Basic

dbhome /usr/local/squidGuard/db
logdir /usr/local/squidGuard/logs

dest porn {
domainlist porn/domains
urllist porn/urls
}

acl {
default {
pass !porn all
redirect http://localhost/block.html
}
}
