Squid problem

[vndpundir2007]

Hello Guys,
I have configured a proxy in my company. Users are resticted to
download any file more than of 5mb of size. This has been implimented
successfully. But some guys are still downloading file of more than of
5 mb size by just adding '?' sign at the end of the URL. Now what
should i do.

Thanks & Regards,

Are you using the reply_body_max_size directive?

[vndpundir2007]

Hi Scathefire

Yes, i am using 'reply_body_max_size' directive.

What's your ACL look like?

[vndpundir2007]

reply_body_max_size 5000000 allow all.extensions

[deep27ak]

make it

reply_body_max_size 10 MB

[vndpundir2007]

Hi
As you said i changes size in MB and it looks now "reply_body_max_size 5 MB allow all.extensions" . Now when i reload squid, it shows following error:-

2011/12/01 14:03:29| squid.conf line 1983: reply_body_max_size 5 MB allow all.extensions
2011/12/01 14:03:29| aclParseAccessLine: expecting 'allow' or 'deny', got 'MB'.

[deep27ak]

reply_body_max_size 10 MB allow all.extensions

I guess this will be the format in your case

as I work with

reply_body_max_size 10 MB

and works fine

[vndpundir2007]

Same problem again.
