Hi Guys,

I tried few acl's but i guess its not exactly how i want to configure squid.
I have many samba users who login to the domain and i would like to
restrict them from using the internet at specific times. The squid
ACL's have option to match the username, is there anything that can
match a unix or a windows group? so, that i can put some users in a
particular group and use that in squid ACL??

The other option is to use "src IP", I am running DHCP on the same
server which servers the whole network, which includes the samba
clients, LTSP clients and other clients which don't use either LTSP or
Samba.. so i cannot use the src IP option.

I am sorry if this is bugging
