Squid + Special group enable NAT Access

Hi all,

I'm wondering if it is possible to make squid call an external script or binary (even better natively) to enable NAT access to specific user group.

The scenario is: I have a network where everyone should have restrictions, use the proxy to surf the Internet as is an usual squid implementation. BUT, I need to allow full NAT access to stations, based on username, such an user would be the network admin.

EG: if a common worker logs in, no extra NAT access will be allowed, proxy only access, blocking MSN an everything else necessary. I am an admin, inside the group "full_access" and I need full NAT access to the world, but i need this while I'm logged to a station, no matter what station I'm logged on. Logging off will remote my NAT rights for the IP.

Did I make myself clear?
Is it possible? Any hints?

Thanks!

Mauricio

You may use squid's authentication capabilities based on PAM for example and people log in squid (popup) before they can browse the net. The rules are then based on squid's rights on URLs and people. But about other protocol than http and the CONNECT query (ftp, etc...), squid will have no clue i guess. Look at nufw if you need something stronger and more powerful. http://www.nufw.org/-English-.html
