Layer 8 / user level firewall on linux?
Does anyone know of a Linux firewall that offers layer 8 firewall / user level firewalling? Cyberoam (http://www.cyberoam.com/firewall.html) has a layer 8 firewall built into their UTM firewalls, and while it's a great product I find it a bit limited for what I want. I basically want to track which user access what on the internet, from an internal network. Ideally I want to limit access to certain objects (i.e. websites, by URL / keyword / type, FTP, skype, MSN, etc) for certain users as well. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532 -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532 -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam

I don't know of anything that will cover *all* your needs, but have you had a look at NuFW? http://www.nufw.org/-English-.html I don't know if it can handle websites by URL/keyword/type, but for that part, Squid + SquidGuard/DansGuardian could be the best tool. NuFW can integrate with squid for single-sign-on. -- Jean-Michel Dault Technology Architect j...@rlnx.com Révolution Linux inc http://www.revolutionlinux.com -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam

Hi all, Does anyone know of a Linux firewall that offers layer 8 firewall / user level firewalling? Cyberoam (http://www.cyberoam.com/firewall.html) has a layer 8 firewall built into their UTM firewalls, and while it's a great product I find it a bit limited for what I want. I basically want to track which user access what on the internet, from an internal network. Ideally I want to limit access to certain objects (i.e. websites, by URL / keyword / type, FTP, skype, MSN, etc) for certain users as well. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532 -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
