RE: [squid-users] which is better for me ?

DansGuardian has WAY more flexibility.
SquidGuard is WAY faster, in my opinion.

What's your priority in terms of filtering needs?

HTB is a way to limit bandwidth via QoS/Kernel/TC/iproute2/iptables.

However, he can use squid to limit bandwidth, which is what I would
recommend.

DansGuardian, naturally! Out of the box, DG will do it. It's the ONLY
"true content" filter I know of.

What is htb?? Software or hardware? How do you use it with Squid?
Some URL of howto, please?
