Hello Every one, am using PFSense on Free BSD and i have tried to install
all necessary packages but it seems it cannot block specific sites like
facebook at a specific times..I want to be able to block some sites during
work hours and put them open after work.
Thank You.
Yes Faisal,
Which Version of pfsense are you using, and which applications have you
installed?
Try to see that you are running the most current version of pfsense, it
has more features. I am using 2.1-RELEASE (i386) and I think I can be of
help!

Hi,
I haven't tried this but, if you are *not* already using the DNS Forwarding
system in pfSense:
You could enable and configure the DNS Forwarding system to redirect all
Facebook.com DNS requests to a bad IP (or your Intranet IP). Then, create a
LAN rule (on a schedule) that redirects all
Thank Kyle,
I use the same method of DNS Forwarding you are talking about, But when am
creating a Firewall rule on to it, and i set my schedule, then it does not
respond to schedule set, Instead it just blocks the address specified.

I read the whole table perhaps I just don't understand what the benefit of
accreditation - by whom? as whom? - and branding is. Especially for an
organization that's still growing.
Is this accreditation by the in-crowd? Is an ICTAU accreditation a
benefit anywhere in the world?

Mark,
Like I said, it's likely I'm the only one that hasn't heard
about ICTAU until now. If that is the case, please don't
take offence :-). I thought my participation was being
sought on a professional, possibly free-of-charge basis, but
certainly didn't expect to be pushing monies out.

Whilst we do not as yet have a formal charter, it is one thing we would
like members to create and eventually adhere too.

I agree with Simon. After almost 7 years of trying to block websites I gave
up. Its an HR issue if employees are playing instead of working. We found
that blocking websites just moves them on to other areas to play hence the
root problem of work not being done is not resolved :)

Ok, so if I paid an annual fee right now, I could spend the next 12 months
and not have any recognizable accreditation since the association is still
in childhood state, right?

Agreed. I think one thing the founder members felt was doing it the 'hard'
way was preferable. Not to caste dispersion's but sometimes when you go the
seeded route there is no incentive to go from that to becoming a membership
