You can use netbios name of that user’s computer and block sites

here is a sample config

=== squid.conf ===
acl BLOCK_USER_FROM_NETBIOS srcdomain “/etc/squid/BLOCK_USER_FROM_NETBIOS”
acl BLOCKED_URLS_FOR_SPECIFIC_USER dstdomain “/etc/squid/BLOCKED_URLS”
http_access deny BLOCKED_URLS_FOR_SPECIFIC_USER BLOCK_USER_FROM_NETBIOS
=================
Create a file : BLOCK_USER_FROM_NETBIOS in /etc/squid/ ( I suppose your squid configuration directory is /etc/squid)
add your user’s computer name there. as an example, lets say computer name is “deepak” and your local domain name is “example.org” suppose your computer is a domain member of example.org. so the netbios name will be “deepak.example.org” , add that to your BLOCK_USER_FROM_NETBIOS file.

after that create a file /etc/squid/BLOCKED_URLS
and add urls you need to block. suppose you need to block facebook.com, add a line like this .facebook.com

reload your configurations
#squid -k reconfigure
or restart the service.

On method is to create a cron job. You can have cron jobs to append to the .conf file or simply backup and replace it.

i tried to block for a specific site and i get that working. but is there a means to block based on source address and destination ipaddress or domain name just in one acl definition?. this kind of acl is very common in Cisco routers.
for eg. i want to deny a web traffic that originates from a specific ip address and its destination address is say http://www.google.com.
can any body tell me how to proceede?
Thanks

I need to setup so that I can have certain machines blocked from some websites and certain machine allowed to access. For example
machine 1 can access msnbc.com
machine 2 can not access msnbc.com

Can you advise what the easiest way to set this up is?

Thanks

To block teamviewer you can add something like this to your squid config:

acl teamviewer url_regex din\.aspx$ dout\.aspx$
http_access deny teamviewer
