If you mean delete the dansguardianfn.conf files and leave only the first one as when installed (dansguardianf1.conf) I already did that, but the option to use the feature again is greyed out in the dansguardian webmin index page, so my gues is that somthenig has changed after the proccess and I need to reset but I haven't have a clue and I can seem to find something in the code.

Unfortunately there is not a way to do this through the module due to the complex nature that the filter groups can be in. Your best bet is to copy the samples provided by DansGuardian when it is first installed. > George Papamichelakis <mailto:ge...@st...> > August 7, 2012 8:42 AM > Hi > > is there a way to reset and recreate with the wizard > the multiple filter groups for the module ? > > thanks in advance > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Live Security Virtual Conference > Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and > threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

There is discussion on making the module work for DG 2.12. Once a beta version is ready, we will let everyone know.

Subject: Warning - File is outside DansGuardian directory - when viewing or editing lists through webmin Hello, I'm trying to edit (or view) my lists in Dansguardian, but I keep getting this error. I checked the module config, and it is pointing to /etc/dansguardian where the config files are. The lists shown through webmin are all located in /etc/dansguardian/lists and that is what webmin shows as well. I saw a couple other posts about this same issue but no other suggestions on how to fix it or if anyone else was able to resolve it on their systems. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, What is the correct log format if I want to use the log analysis feature of the DG webmin module? I've tried 'native (space delimited)' and 'Squid log file' but when I try to run a log analysis report I get messages like Warning - Failed to parse log entry or entries - Make sure module config format of log file matches logs being analyzed example (access.log): 2011.6.2 21:50:59 1307065859.450 - 192.168.1.7 http://clients1.google.com/complete/search?hl=en&client=hp&sugexp=ldymls&q=f&cp=1 *SCANNED* GET 508 0 1 200 text/javascript plankton.home - .

So this message must refer to the webmin session I guess. How do control what user webmin runs as? I would have thought it would kinda run under the user you logged into Webmin as. How I know I am running DG as the dansguardian user. Change the /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf to say daemonuser = 'dansguardian' daemongroup = 'dansguardian' and then when I start DG it says "Error opening/creating log file. (check ownership and access rights). I am running as dansguardian and I am trying to open /var/log/dansguardian//access.log" |

It's the same for me but it not seem to be a real problem as it seem to be the expected behavior according to the developers. Root is similar the user Administrator in based Windows platforms. Maybe you are logged as root in your OS linux based. I have never tried to fix it because is not a problem for me. Try to log in with another user.

Hi, I have DG Version 2.10.1.1 (Webmin Module Version 0.7.1) running on Debian 5.0. The DG directory is: Full path to DG config(etc) directory: /usr/local/etc/dansguardian/ Trying to View/Edit /usr/local/etc/dansguardian/lists/exceptionsitelist, or any other Filter Group's List, I have this warning: Warning - File is outside DansGuardian directory May you help me to fix the problem? Why it happen even if the DG's directory path is correct? Thank you for any answer. Flavio from Italy |

Version 0.7.1 has been released as stable! Several of the major bugs have been resolved. There are a couple still present but they do not appear to be show stoppers. With that, I give you 0.7.1. It is available for download on the SourceForge project page: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dgwebminmodule/ NOTE: This version is only intended to work with DansGuardian 2.9 and higher! ChangeLog: 0.7.1 (01-18-2011): - Changed root user warning text slightly - Fixed bug #2914571 by darrikmazey - Fixed bug #2814496 (Errors about $debug declaration) - Fixed bug #2810044 (Fixed regexp issue with logs.cgi) Please report any and all bugs to the SourceForge Tracker. Thanks everyone! -- Adam "Fuzzy" Kennedy |

Hello, I just installed the Dansguardian Webmin Module on a Ubuntu9.10 Machine, where I compiled Dansguardian by myself. I then installed Webmin and the latest Dansguardian-Webmin Modul. In Webmin I tried to Confirue the Dansguardian Module, so it fits to my preferences. Everything looked fine but I was not able to change the lists in Dansguardian. Everytime I opened a list a got the error "You are not authorized to change this file". But in the Webmin ACLs I was authorized, as this was the Admin User! I checked the /opt/webmin-511/dansguardian/config file and saw, that my Module Configuration was not correct. But I really saved my Configurations after setting them in Webmin. Even after a reboot the Configuration still fitted in the Webinterface. Just the config file was still on the standard Settings. So, I changed the Settings directly in the file and voila: Everything worked like a charm. I don't know wether this is a bug or I am just to dump to install a simple webmin Module. But maybe this will help someone, someday. Best Regards, Markus |

Do other webmin modules load fine? I'm curious as to why it would error out on a console permission. I don't think anything checking the version would cause that to even be a problem.

Hello, Have been using DG2.10 with DGWebmin module 070beta1b on Centos 5.4 quite happily. Have just deployed to a Hosted VPS running Ubuntu Hardy and am getting the following error: Every thing runs quite happily except the Webmin Module. It doesnt detect that DG is running and so I cannot access any files to edit them (such as exceptions or Whitelists). Module reports when attempting to start DG: /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh: line 22: /dev/console: Permission denied * starting DansGuardian dansguardian /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh: line 22: /dev/console: Permission denied ...fail! Warning - DansGuardian appears to not be running. I thinking its failing as the VPS potentially has no Console configured.... but surely it should detect the servers running state in the first place. Any assistance greatly appreciated. Regards Chris Kemp Network Systems Manager Chatham Grammar School for Boys |

I apologize for this taking so long. I know this has been a long standing bug now and will try my best to take a look at it. If anyone has time and would like to look into the bug please let me know.

Most of that functionality was there prior to the latest patches. The
plan is to implement some detailed ACL functionality again once time
permits.
Thank you for looking into this though and providing the answer!

Hi there,
I am not a programmer, so I ended up asking someone about the documentation
section I was citing. You are right Nerijus and I was wrong. As I now
understand it the /acl/edit_group.cgi?group=limited page settings has an
overall on/off setting which is verified by init_config. Having init_config
called does not affect the settings on the
/acl/edit_acl.cgi?mod=dansguardian&group=limited which is contrary to what I
originally thought.
My friend was also gracious enough to offer up some advice which is beyond
my programming know-how, but felt it would be best to pass it on. He said:
If you want more detailed access control, it has to be implemented yourself.

I hope this helps things move forward!

Hello, I don't think so. "This kind of detailed access control is separate from the first level ACLs that control which users have access to which modules. As long as your module calls init_config, the Webmin API will automatically block users who do not have access to the entire module." I think they talk about the first level ACLs here, and not about the ACLs in the module itself (2nd level ACLs).
