Internet usage policy

Internet usage policy

[Ayobami Oladejo]

Hello,

I am still a newbie in Linux. I have a challenge. Curently in my 
organisation, we want to run a policy not to allow some workstations to 
access the Internet until 6 p.m of each day. We currently use Squid on a 
RedHat Linux system.
How can I do this.

Thank you.

Ayo

squid supports time-based ACL's:

PS - squid has its own list:

Best Linux Intrusion Detection System

[elg3ne]

Hi guys, I know this is a off topic but since Iptables is a security tool, I
will ask this question with regards also on security.

Here it goes.
1. what is the most commonly used LIDS system?
2. what is the best LIDS?
3. what is the most sophisticated LIDS?
4. what is the most easiest to setup?
5. what LIDS can you suggest on CentOS?

thanks

 Dear Ayobami Oladejo,

I am still a newbie in Linux. I have a challenge. Curently in my 
organisation, we want to run a policy not to allow some workstations to 
access the Internet until 6 p.m of each day. We currently use Squid on a 
RedHat Linux system.

for this i think that you should define a time based acl to allow users accordingly.
make a group of users and an acl_name also make an acl for time that you want to give access and use it.

hope this will help you.
