Hello!

Me wonder if it's possible to use Squid together with Pixelserv? I tried it but i cant get it to work as it should …
I'm sure most of you know the "Pixelserv-Script" from the Linksysinfo-Forum. It simply work's wonderful - every blocked host is exchanged through a transparent Pixel - no visible Errors on filtered Homepages.
So i installed Squid and set it up to use the RT-N16 as DNS-Server (dns_nameservers ROUTER-IP). My Problem is now that it correctly uses the "poisoned Cache" (=no Ads) but Pixelserv serves no transparent Pixel :( Instead of that i get a "ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved / (146) Connection refused" at the Place of the filtered Ad.
Any Idea what causes this Behaviour?

Thx!

Is squid running on a remote box and you are diverting all port 80 http traffic through it? If so the blocked host stuff would have to be rediverted?

Nope - Squid (Optware) + Pixelserv are both running on my Router (RT-N16). And Squid runs in normal (Port 3128) and NOT in transparent Mode.

So I guess squid is requesting the ad (or replacement pixel) on your behalf, are you using pixelserv with any arguments? In V27 "pixelserv -n br0" makes it only listen on the lan interface, squid may be requesting over the loopback interface lo.
