Re: [squid-users] how to denying some files

This email is to be read subject to the disclaimer below.

Hi,

In the man pages & FAQ it explains how to use the urlpath_regex feature

This is how we have implemented it

Define your acl.

acl BADFILES urlpath_regex -i "/usr/local/etc/BADFILES"

it would point to a text file which would have the following entries of the
file types you want to block.

\.asf$
\.asx$
\.avi$
\.m3u$

hope this helps, read those man pages. :)
