So you could have a couple of iptables rulesets which only allow 'net access to members of the teachers group. This would allow them full access. You could then have more restrictive rules and logging for non-members. That could nicely do all of the above, except perhaps the blacklist. Really, to run a blacklist you need someone else to write the blacklist. Dan's guardian is one example, I'm not sure if a good iptables-based blacklist exists. A whitelist would be easy to do with iptables though. Gavin
