Advice "Software to block surfing" from Work
#5
We use Sonicwalls with the content filter to stop then from getting to dodgy sites, and Surfcontrol to monitor where they have been. It's amazing that it never shows where I have been

sorry for being so vague,
network has around 40 machines mainly 98
router is going in, so i reckon to stop access to xx machines they don't get the router IP,
but for the machine that get access i want to
control surfing (ie the standard dodgy stuff)
monitor who and what they were in at...
small server running WINS thats about it (feeds email service on a non exchange flavour)
thanks

Jase,
Only give machines that need Internet access the router/firewall address.
Stick in a firewall, you don't need to spend loads of cash get something like a 3Com with a built in content filter, it is virtually the same kit as the more expensive SonicWall.
Watch out with Surfcontrol, we use it and it really needs a dedicated PC to work properly in my experience.

Websense it quite a good product, basically a URL filter that sits on top of a proxy server. We use it at work and its very effective.
