Sorry, hit send to fast.  Squid is in the ports tree.  Here is the link for
squidguard

http://www.squidguard.org/

Takes a little configuring, but once you get it up and running, it works
great.

Subject: Porn-blocking Software


I've just been asked to look into implementing porn-filtering (i.e. 
CyberPatrol/ Net Nanny/SurfWatch) software for a network I run.

Without going into the ethics of the matter, & without going too 
deeply into why it's a Bad Idea for many technical reasons, & 
definitely without asking why I should have to deal with it this way 
when it should probably be dealt with by having a manager tell the 
employee who's surfing porn at work that his behavior is 
inappropriate, I have a question:

Is there software for this that I can put on my OpenBSD 2.8/IPF 
firewall box, or would I have to add another box between the firewall 
& the rest of the network?

Thanks,
-Kit
