Squid White List?

Hello--

Seems to me like the filter capabilities of Squid could be used to create a
"white list" filter that would allow me DENY all access to the web and then
ALLOW access to my OPAC and a few other sites.  Has anyone else done this?
If so, I'd be interested in knowing how you set up your squid.conf to
support this.

Also, would I be better off doing this with tinyproxy?

Thanks

Squid White List?

There is a package called squidguard which builds on squid, and which
you can fairly easily configure to implement whitelists -- which is
what I've done with our little network at home.

I fiddled around with the squid.conf until I got the whitelist to work.
Pretty slick and simple--once you get it done.

Thanks
