Feb 17, 2018. Windows 7 and Windows 10 based workstations on internal network. We will install squid from yum repository available for CentOS7 which comes with version 3.5.20. Yum install epel-release yum install squidGuard. We will be performing squid and squidGuard installation process on CentOS 7 operating system. In order to install squid on your CentOS, make sure that your system’s packages are on the latest releases.

Been setting up PFsense + squid + blocklist + SSL transparent proxy over the past week, and it most of the tutorials and help docs fall short when it comes to client side setup. Not only that, the ability of the modern teenager w/ 3 devices to detect when Dad is “messing with the Internet” >:(is absolutely amazing. Transceiver lampovij aljbatros navesnoj montazh.

Well, I just got the client side setup for Apple iOS 8.4, Windows 7 (IE, FireFox, Chrome), Windows 10 (Chrome, FF), Android 5.0.1 (AT&T, Samsung Note 4), and also Windows Update working a few moments ago. Here’s some helpful advice to complete the puzzle. Victoria 2 heart of darkness torrent. Key Concepts for the non-experts: The Squid proxy functions properly in HTTP “transparent” mode (port 80) because that protocol is not authenticated – meaning that there is no inherent method or mechanism for the client to gain assurance of the servers identity, and vice-verse. Not so for HTTPS, or SSL/TLS (Secure Socket Layer / Transport Layer Security). The browser checks and confirms the identify the site, and Squid gets in the way because it is handling the SSL transaction, not the client browser or other app.

You need to inform the client operating system and in one case a client browser that the certificate that Squid hands back is in the chain of trust. Method I’ve used so far: The method I chose to accomplish this is outlined below – I will be brief on the well doc’d areas on the pfSense site.

• Create a certificate in pfsense (System, Cert Manager). You will need to “Create an Internal Certificate Authority”. • I used “real” information, such as an email address, location, and name.

For name, I chose “Internal CA”, because that is the name that you will see in the browser certificate UI’s. • Configure Squid, in HTTP transparent mode, and make sure that it is functional. (again, covered elsewhere on this wiki). • I also chose to install squidguard, and import the block list from. And configured a lot of stuff (routinely, we have guests with minors, so I am very conservative). • Enable the https transparent proxy, then satisfy yourself it works by performing two specific tests. Try to visit Google, Facebook, Youtube – all SSL sites.

The browsers will all return errors. Try Windows update – this should fail w/ an eight digit error code. • Export the certificate from the Internal CA on PFsense. This is the SECOND ICON from the left, next to the “e”, in pfsense 2.2.4 w/ the default visual UI. DO NOT EXPORT THE PRIVATE KEY. Not only is it a ginormous security issue, it just won’t work for you. • On my home network, I saved it to a public CIFS share.

• On windows 7, you will need to start a Microsoft Mgmt Console. In the Run dialog, type in MMC, hit enter, respond to the admin rights prompt (you are running as a normal user, right???), Then choose FILE Add Remove Snap In. Pick “certificates”, and Add. I chose “Computer Account” on the next screen, because I want my PFSense Internal CA certificate to be used access the system (Windows Update will need this). Open “Trusted Root Cert Authorities”, and then right click on certificates, chose “Import”.
