One way to do this would be to use Firestarter.  You can set a white list 
pretty easily.  You can disable the firewall or the rules, but it is global for 
the whole system.  I don't know how to disable that on a per-user basis.

Hi,

I'm starting an Edubuntu lab in a primary (K12) school in Italy, with a P4/3Ghz 
server and ten PIII/800 thin clients. 
Kids just need - and teachers want - to access just a bunch of controlled sites 
(less than 10, a sort of whitelist of allowed sites), blocking all the rest of 
the Internet.
It's a slightly restrictive approach, but at the moment that's what we have to 
do.

Is there a simple way to do it, without building a squid+dansguardian box ?

It would be also nice to allow teachers to access the whole Internet: that 
should be depending on the users logging in (kids just use 10 different users, 
named after the PC they're working on).

Thanks in advance,
Sergio
