Hey Everyone,
I'm testing out PFSense for webfiltering and everything works fine if I manually configure the proxy settings in a browser. If I set the browser to automatically detect settings, then IE works fine, but Chrome and Firefox won't work.
I'm using PFSense 2.2 + squid3 + dansguardian and using NTLM authentication. I added a wpad.dat file to the root of the pfsense web server and configured option 252 in the DHCP server.
Here's the contents of my wpad.dat file:
function FindProxyForURL(url,host)
{
return "PROXY 192.168.1.249:8080";
}
I saw a few examples of people redirecting port 80 on PFSense to the Dansguardian port, but that wouldn't work for me at all. Idealy, I would like to get the automatic proxy working, but I'm open to any suggestions.
Thanks.
