Hi Mike,

I'd suggest that you look at IPCop with the advproxy add-on. This will give you the protection you need with plenty of options as far as filtering goes. I just installed an IPCop box yesterday at a location that had the same concerns. I'm serving 40 users on a 400MHz box with a 40 GB HDD and 512MB memory and two network cards.

Not a hard job to do and if you decide to go this way I'm sure you'll be happy.

BTW, the IPCop box can run headless so no worries about the monitor.

Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions.

Cheers,
Dave Watkins

Hi folks, I need some advice.

I have a need to set up a firewall so as to block pornographic
websites at home. I use both Kubuntu and Windows (Ubuntu mainly, but
Windows still for the TV-out) and would need to implement something so
as to prevent access to these sites.

Are there any recommendations?
