Saturday, February 21, 2009

First open squid.conf file /etc/squid/squid.conf:

# vi /etc/squid/squid.conf

Now add following lines to your squid ACL section:

acl blockfiles urlpath_regex “/etc/squid/multimedia.files.acl”

Now create the the file

# vi /etc/squid/multimedia.files.acl

\.[Ee][Xx][Ee]$
\.[Aa][Vv][Ii]$
\.[Mm][Pp][Gg]$
\.[Mm][Pp][Ee][Gg]$
\.[Mm][Pp]3$

Save and close the file and Restart Squid:

# /etc/init.d/squid restart
