Web Proxy Local content filtering database?

Had to turn off the http proxy yet again..come on guys get this feature pushed out or fix your bandwidth issues.

  • I had this turned on, and had to restore a backup for an unrelated problem. I restored to a backup from before this was turned on, so it went back to "none". When I went to turn it on again, It never starts downloading the database, and gets this error in the proxy log. My content filter support isn't expired, and it works fine when set to none. Is this McAfee blocking me from downloading the whole db? if so, any idea why?

    The licensing page says Network Security is valid through 2014 and Web security is valid through 2013. And it works when the sc_local_db$ is set to none.
  • then it may temporarily be unavailable or there's an internal problem.

  • I had some problems today getting it to download the pattern DB as well, when I set it to "mem" ... set it to "disk" and it started downloading.  It's probably just an error on the http server serving up the pattern, to be expected as it's not even an official beta yet.

  • Hi,

    I use the disk version on a asg 110/120 rev 1 with 512 mb Ram.
    Before i use this i had about 70% ram use and 10% swap. (asg only make pf an web proxy)
    now i have ca. 35% ram use and 30% swap use and the storage increase to 20% before it was around 10%.
    My question is: is this normal or why does the asg half the ram use and double the swap use?
    When someone wanted i can send a screen shot.

    Thx
    Hal
