Re: freebsd / gateway / parental control

Hello,

Thank you all who have responded!

utility. I guess I can use pf. But would that be enough? I think it
would
have to be something that would allow me to define keywords based
on which
sites containing them would get automatically blocked on the fbsd
gateway.
I'd rather use open source solutions.

squid and squidguard seem like the obvious choices to me.

-j

I use squid and dansguardian. Very easy to setup.
/usr/ports/www/dansguardian

I have never tried squid but it seems quite a big package. I have also
seen oops but not sure which to choose. Basically, will squid not be an
overkill for a family network consisting of 3-4 machines? The box I want
to devote for gateway/pc purposes is a Compaq PIII 866 Mhz with 512 MB RAM
and 40GB HD.

Thank you!
