Install Squid on Windows Server with Access List and Cache Cygwin for Proxy Internet
Install Squid on Windows Server with Access List and Cache Cygwin
Configure Gateway in Windows server with 2 LAN Card
Set public ip with gateway and DNS in one LAN Card to have internet connection on your server.
In other LAN card you need to setup LAN IP without Gateway as 2 gateway are not possible in one machine. So workaround shall be activate Static Routing and Remote access service in windows.
Add a static route for all your LAN traffic like my internal LAN in 10.0.0.0 and gateway is 10.0.236.20 then my entry shall be
Destination: 10.0.0.0
Mask: 255.0.0.0
Gateway: 10.0.236.20
You can do the same using command line
> route add -p 10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 10.0.236.20
> route print
Now my both LAN card have been configured.
Install Squid on Windows Server with Access List and Cache Cygwin
Download the MSI from http://squid.diladele.com. Currently only 64 bit version is provided.
Install on D drive
service can be configured from task bar.
Change the port to 8080 from 3182 in squid conf file.
# Squid normally listens to port 3128
http_port 8080
Access Control List for web filtering and IP Filtering:
add following lined to acl section
##################################################################
acl bad_url dstdomain "/etc/bad-sites.acl"
acl porn_sites dstdomain '/etc/porn-sites.acl'
acl ad_sites dstdomain '/etc/ad-sites.acl'
acl banned_machines src '/etc/banned_machines.acl'
acl vip_machines src '/etc/vip_machines.acl'
acl localnet src '/etc/allowed_machines.acl' # RFC1918 possible internal network
###################################################################
add following lines to http_access section
######################################################################
http_access deny banned_machines
http_reply_access deny banned_machines
http_access deny bad_url
http_access allow porn_sites vip_machines
http_access deny porn_sites
#http_access deny ad_sites
http_access allow localnet
http_access allow localhost
######################################################################
# And finally deny all other access to this proxy
http_access deny all
Create acl file under etc folder like:
you can get readymade ACL on internet just download them for web filtering.
/etc/bad-sites.acl

Enable Caching to load page faster
Add the caching directive to the config file squid.config to enable pipelining compatability, disk cache and enhanced memory cache.

Stop the squid service
Run the squid terminal shortcut on your desktop as administrator and perform the following commands:
squid.exe -z
It will create the cache folders in Squid root directory.
Start the squid service again and your clients can access internet using
your server LAN ip with 8080 port
This is how my complete woriking squid.conf file looked for Windows server:
