hello
How to block gtalk using squid in linux??
-
Worked in squid 4 years back, not sure but u can try below..., u have to block the gtalk port
in /etc/squid/squid.conf file make acl like below
acl gtalk_ports port 5222-5223
http_access deny gtalk_ports
#service squid restart
If it don't work then i belive u need the port of gtalk using iptables.

Hi,
Gtalk use port 5222-5223.. It is good to block gtalk in firewall (Iptables) level not on proxy level.. because proxy is not able to completely block gtalk.
