Re: [K12OSN] Squid and SquidGuard help

["David Trask" <dtrask vcs u52 k12 me us>]

Hey!  I found the problem!  In the program....the reference to
squidGuard.conf is misspelled.  I checked the log and it was looking for
sguidGuard.conf   (note the "g" instead of a "q")  I simply changed the
name of "squidGuard.conf" to "sguidGuard.conf" and it worked!  Now I'm
trying to get me redirect to work right....it blocks, but it doesn't go to
the site I want it to go to in place of the "bad" one.
