Sites like Facebook have thousands of servers across the world, split 
across numerous netblocks and content delivery networks. You never will 
be able to completely block them, at least not without spending hundreds 
of man-hours keeping up to date with IP lists, DNS names, etc.


Then you have to consider the easy availability of proxies designed 
specifically to allow people to access blocked sites.


And even assuming you are able to block them, many sites share their CDN 
infrastructure (Akamai, Limelight Networks, to name just two big ones), 
so you have to consider the dangers of overblocking inadvertently 
preventing your users from accessing necessary sites who happen to use 
the same CDN.


There just isn't a panacea in this.

You are trying to find a technical solution to a social/political problem.

If your management doesn't understand that getting you to spend hours 
upon hours playing 'whack-a-mole' blocking each social networking 
netblock isn't productive use of your time, then perhaps asking them to 
provide a whitelist of sites that employees *can* access, then simply 
blocking anything not on that list might be a more sensible way of going 
about this.


On a personal note, I'd add that if your management are so determined to 
prevent people having a few moments to keep up with their 
friends/personal life, I'd have to question whether I really wanted to 
work for them...


Kind regards,

Chris

A suggestion: Null route all facebook addresses. That usually kills any
traffic. Be aware that it kills all traffic to those addresses (HTTP,
HTTPS, SMTP, POP3, DNS).


FYI, getting snotty to people that are asking for help usually turns them
off of wanting to help you...
