Description

Epiphany cannot reach any site though ping works fine

It may be due to a wrong configuration of DansGuardian. Typically when DansGuardian fails to start, web pages are not reachable but networking is working. Further investigation is then needed…

For an unknown reason Squid and Dansguardian are not started while network is brought up, which makes any web page request fail.

It seems the directory /etc/dhcp3/ has just moved to /etc/dhcp/ :).

I figured out that it works only if you're manually invoking a DHCP lease, what I've done in my tests. If you let Network-manager do the stuff, it doesn't call DHCP directly anymore, as it did in Gondwana. I guess it is because it can now use fixed IP's, thus without any DHCP.

As a result it seems we have to make a dupe of our DHCP script in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/. The best option seems to make it call /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/squid-dansguradian. The strange thing is that Network-manager is supposed to call ifup scripts in /etc/network/, it should then start Squid and DansGuardian but it doesn't.

Our scripts were not written to start Squid/DansGuardian from if-up. It is now the case, a new custom Debian package dansguardian-squid has been created on purpose to deal with the issue.
