    Setup: RedHat 6.2 running TrinityOS' *default* firewall script.
(default meaning it has network-wide ipchains rules setup for the entire
ip range of that network)

    How can I block a few machines on my internal network from accessing
certain websites?  Basically we have employees in the company that are
abusing their surfing privileges and I've been instructed to block their
machines.  However, I don't want to place a network-wide block, just to
those employees' machines.  And this would also only have to be for web
access to certain sites like Yahoo, Hotmail, MSN, etc. (basically,
webbased email services).

    Now, ideally, I would like to set it up in such a way that the block
only happens during office hours (8am to 6pm), and then get lifted after
that.  They're allowed to surf the net all they want, as long as they're
not on company time.  But, I don't know if that can be done.

    Ideas anyone?
