Hi friends,

I am running a squid proxy server in transparent mode on FC7
(squid-2.6.STABLE16-2). Currently 15 MB download limit is set in the
squid but I want to restrict download of certain file types based on
the size for ex if the size of .mp3/mpeg file is more than 1MB then
don't allow the file to be downloaded but allow other file types to be
downloaded with 15MB download limit. I tried the below settings in
squid.conf file

acl ankush src 172.16.4.0/24 (network range)
acl ankush1 src 172.16.4.0/24
http_access allow ankush

acl block_stream urlpath_regex
\.(ra?m|mpeg|mov|m3u|pls|ivf|asf|asx|avi|wax|wma|wmv|wvx|wmp|wmx|m1v|mp2|mp3|mpa|mpe|mpv2|rm)($|\?)
acl streaming rep_mime_type ^video/x-ms-asf ^video/x-ms-sf ^audio/mpeg
^audio/x-mpeg ^audio/x-pn-realaudio ^application/x-mms-framed
^application/vnd.ms.wms-hdr.asfv1 OPTIONS FOR X-Forwarded-For

 reply_body_max_size 15000000 allow ankush(15 MB Limit for downloading)
 reply_body_max_size 1000000 allow ankush1 streaming block_stream
(only allowing 1MB for movie/video files)

But still I am able to download movies/video files greater than 1 MB.
Any suggestions/comments are most welcome.

Thanks & Regards

Ankush
