All,
What is the best way to block or filter certain specifc websites/pages
( approx 30 in number) by hostname on the checkpoint firewall (4.1 SP4).
e.g :- mail.yahoo.com, login.yahoo.com/config/mail?.intl=ca,
fastmail.ca/cgi-bin/request.cgi?a=list etc. I am looking for interim
solution using the checkpoint before we are able to go for third party URI
filtering software.
I had limited success using firewall domain objects as it is more for
blocking the whole domain rather than particular hostname.
The other option, I tried using "http resourced based URI filtering by
file". I created URI specification file for 'mail.yahoo.com' but for some
reasons, it also seems to block some other sites like "
www.cyberpatrol.com". Further I was not able to get specific path filtering
to work using the the file e.g:- www.megacity.com/webmail/
Thx for suggestions/input.
regards,
Sunil
