I have DansGuardian set up on my home Linux server that acts as the router for our home network, and it does a great job of web filtering on the fly. (I have grade school kids at home). You basically configure a transparent proxy so all HTTP traffic is filtered, and it's configurable as to what categories you want to allow or block. I use RPMs available from RPMForge. http://dansguardian.org/ http://packages.sw.be/dansguardian/ -Greg _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
