Hi everyone,
Is it possible to do website filtering on an Alix board? I setup some
businesses with gateways using squid and dansguardian to blanket block
the internet, and then allowing access on a per ip basis or allow
certain websites for the rest of the users. Is this possible on an alix
board using a CF by taking of caching, but using the dansguardian? I
have see others asking the same, but not seen any replies.
Or can this be setup using rules?
Thanks.
Mark,
No, the embedded platform does not work with packages. Further, squid
is an extreme resource hog and would kill most Alix board resources even
under fairly light load. Lastly, Dansguardian isn't licensed to be free
for commercial use, so you may well be violating their license by
installing it for businesses.
