Topic: Close SME Proxy

[wawan]

Hi All,
I set our SME Server as SERVER ONLY.
I open http port on our separated Internet gateway, to allow the SME Server connect through http port for updating Anti-virus and Anti-Spam.
But, then I found many users (that are blocked on internet gateway) connect to http through SME Proxy.
How I can diasble this SME Proxy, so no computer can use the SME Proxy services to connect to Internet.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Wawan

On 6.x you should be able to go to "Configuration", "Services" in server-manager and un-check "Web Proxy         squid".

Hi mmccarn,

I went ot the Server-Manager -> Configuration, but could not found "Services" menu. Should I install any pannel to get this "Services" menu?
Can I do something using Linux Command?
Or maybe, can I just REMOVE the PROXY hostname on Hostnames and Addresses?

Any ideas and suggestion would be highly appreciated.

Rockin' regards,
Wawan

This command should configure squid to be disabled (I can't test it as the only 6.01 server I can get to is a "production" system...):

# /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop squid status disabled

I can't figure out exactly how to re-build just the relevant parts of the squid config, but this should cause the new config to kick in:

# /sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
# /sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot

If that doesn't do it it looks like you could stop the service manually after each reboot by running

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/squid stop

There was a contrib to control services. You can download it here.

I did't build it, I just never through anything away.
