Squid blacklist entry block a good domain.

klabacita · 01-16-2023, 12:43 PM

Hello people.

I running squid 5.7, I got an issue that would like to know if I could fix this.
In my blacklist I got this entries:

.party
.porn
.xxx
.vip
.me

Which I have found on adult sites that I want to block.

Now, the problem is the ".me" because I found that it is blocking a
government domain on my country.

"dof.gob.mx"

If I remove ".me" from my blacklist I can surf on my government site.

Then what I see is that once squid detects ".m" it will block any domain.

If I add the url on the whitelist won't fix the issue.

Any recommendations?

Regards!!!

I don't see why blocking the ".me" TLD blocks also a ".mx" TLD!

Anyway if you want to whitelist a specific (sub)domain you need to use (in your case) a "http_access allow dof.gob.mx" before any "http_access deny ..." directive(s).
