[rasitha]

Is there any reporting tool for squid webproxy? (Like in pfsense's light squid package)

[rasitha]

i figured it .... instructions bellow

pkg install sarg

edit sarg.conf file at this location
/usr/local/etc/sarg/sarg.conf

un-comment following lines for ur needs

access_log /var/log/squid/access.log (path to ur squid accress.log)
output_dir /var/www/html/squid-reports
date_format e (Date format in reports: e (European=dd/mm/yy), u (American=mm/dd/yy), w (Weekly=yy.ww))
overwrite_report (yes/no)

save the file

to generate the report run sarg -x on the command line

to view the report u need to install nginx on opnsense
go to services>nginx>configuration

in http(s) tab> location> add
add a description
URL Pattern = /test
Match Type = caseinsensitivemach
File System Root = /var/www/html/squid-reports

HTTP Listen Address = 8888 (port number-the port i use )
Default Server = tick
Server Name = fqdn of ur opnsense server or the ip
File System Root = /var/www/html/squid-reports
