Hi,
Thanks for your reply. The following is the ip and abbreviated msg:
(reason: 554 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [65.24.5.137] blocked
using dnsbl-1.uceprotect.net;
To my squid issue, if aufs is less intensive and more efficient i'll
definitely switch over to it. As for your suggestion about splitting in to
multiple files I believe the version i have can do this, it has multiple acl
statements for the safe_ports definition. My issue though is there's like
15000+ lines in this file, and investigating some like 500 are duplicates.
I'd rather not have to manually go through this and do the split, is there a
way i can split based on the dst, dstdomain, or url_regexp you referenced?
I'll check out squidclient output, but last time i did i didn't see anything
that stood out.
Thanks.
Dave.
