Say Bob has a server that runs a proxy service, and he's getting real tired of people wasting his bandwidth on "inappropriate" websites. So he installs DansGuardian (or something similar) to deny access to those sites. How well can exclusion lists do in these types of cases?
|
You have given any thought whatsoever to your question? Do you understand anything about which you are asking? Do you know how DansGuardian works? If so, how could an exclusion list work with it?

Note that Bob is not a member of the CoDeeN network, so you can't filter his proxy by IP address, or by doing a reverse DNS lookup and checking the hostname for "planetlab" or ".edu".

As they say in the 4th grade, no shit Dick Tracey!
[quote]Anyone who utilizes proxies for "testing" purposes knows that even after removal of the CoDeeN variety, there are a number of these other "nasties" (what I've been calling them) that tend to muck up the works.[/qupte]
Provide a list of them ... the proxies.

And that also goes to the point I was trying to make when I referenced the "cracking" tools - the logic of looking in the response headers for certain keywords that indicate that web filtering software is installed.

And again I will point out to you that these type questions go way beyond the scope and purpose of this site. Continue on this theme and I will ban you. Got it?

Since it's probably been 4-5 years since I last used Charon, I went back and reviewed the tutorial, and I saw something interesting that I had forgotten about. Namely, the option of using an internal proxy judge.

Yes, it always helps to
read about programs we are talking about ... something I believe I pointed out to you from the beginning! By the way, the internal judge option does not always work for everyone! In fact, more times than not it doesn't.
