Assuming your web filter has this ability. Why can't you just assign the logons for those pc's to a group than can only access the specific sites they need? Base everything off the user id or pc name and forget about IP's. I do this all the time with my Barracuda. If the user is a member of this AD group it can go here and no where else. It's how I locked down our training kiosks to only access our online training sites. And since a majority of my pc's are general use data collection pc's on the shop floor I have a group in AD that says if you're a member then you are denied all internet access. Everyone else gets filtered like usual.

I have a situation where one of the professors wants to keep students from cheating by restricting access to online quizes using the IP addresses of the classroom workstations. She can do this with the software. Here is my problem - not surprisingly I'm using a DHCP server. I refuse to give over half the campus static IP addresses. I could reserve them, but they won't be in a nice seqential order like she wants. Is there another option I am missing? -- Organization and good planning are just crutches for people that can't handle stress and caffeine. - unknown ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
