Updates
The Red Hat 7.2 RPM is configured to automatically synchronize to the
MESD blocklists every night. MESD combines the blocklists from
ftp://ftp.univ-tlse1.fr/pub/reseau/cache/squidguard_contrib/blacklists.t
ar.gz and http://www.bn-paf.de/filter/de-blacklists.tar.gz

Local modifications to pre-built databases is very easy. Lets say, for
example, that the gambling database includes onlinegames.com which you
don't want blocked but does not include casino.com which you do want
blocked. In the gambling directory, /usr/local/squidGuard/db/gambling ,
you can create a diff containing these changes. If it is whole domain
you want blocked (http://www.casino.com), edit domains.diff. If it is a
specific URL you want blocked (http://www.somewhere.com/gambling), edit
urls.diff.

The syntax is simple, just add a "+" to the sites you wanted added to
the database, and a "-" to the ones you want removed. In our example, we
would create a domains.diff file containing:

+casino.com
-onlinegames.com

Next, run the command: /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c
/etc/squid/squidGuard.conf -u
The changes should take effect immediately.
