NAME
ext_file_userip_acl - Restrict users to certain IP addresses, using a text file backend. Version 1.0 SYNOPSIS
ext_file_userip_acl [-dh] [-f file name ] DESCRIPTION
ext_file_userip_acl is an installed binary. An external helper for the Squid external acl scheme. It works by reading a pair composed by an IP address and an username on STDIN and matching it against a configuration file. OPTIONS
-d Write debug info to stderr. -f file Configuration file to load. -h Display the binary help and command line syntax info using stderr. CONFIGURATION
The squid.conf configuration for the external ACL should be: external_acl_type type-name %SRC %LOGIN /path/to/ext_file_userip_acl -f /path/to/config.file If the helper program finds a matching username/ip in the configuration file, it returns OK , otherwise it returns ERR . The configuration file format is as follows: ip_addr[/netmask] username|@group|ALL|NONE Where ip_addr is a dotted quad format IP address, the netmask must be in dotted quad format too. When the second parameter is prefixed with an @ , the program will lookup the /etc/group file entry for the specified username. There are other two directives, ALL and NONE , which mean AUTHOR
