Setting Specific Time & Day for Browsing


The following lines have been taken from the file squid.conf. Each day can be represented by an alphabet. Moreover,browsing time can be limited using h1:m1 – h2:m2 parameters, where h1:m1 > h2:m2.
#acl aclname time [day-abbrevs] [h1:m1-h2:m2]
# day-abbrevs:
# S - Sunday
# M - Monday
# T - Tuesday
# W - Wednesday
# H - Thursday
# F - Friday
# A - Saturday
# h1:m1 must be less than h2:m2

# /etc/squid/squid.conf

acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32
acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8
acl time_limit time SMTWH 10:00 – 14:00
acl our_network src 192.168.200.0/24
http_access deny our_network time_limit
http_access deny all

Example: allow browsing during office hours only

# /etc/squid/squid.conf

acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32
acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8

acl office_hours time SMTWH 08:00-18:00
acl non_office_hours time SMTWHFA 17:01-00:00
acl non_office_hours time SMTWHFA 00:00-08:59

acl our_network src 192.168.200.0/24

http_access deny our_network non_office_hours
http_access allow our_network office_hours

http_access deny all

  By default postfix SMTP works on 25 port.   You can check this by following command with the output below: #netstat -nat tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:25             0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN    Here we will change the port to 465 with SASL authentication.

Edit the file /etc/dovecot.conf and make sure your auth default section has the lines below. auth default { socket listen {   client {    path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth    mode = 0660    user = postfix    group = postfix     }   }   mechanisms = plain login } Step 2 . Edit /etc/postfix/main.cf , find the keys below and change its values as follows or add it at the bottom of the file if the key (the word before the = sign) cannot be found. mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 smtpd_sasl_type
