Content filtering or parental controls

[dwengel]

Well, after my last post, our family has switched from using a Windows computer to my Linux laptop, using Salix64, KDE 13.37.

I'm having problems configuring web filtering. I've tried Alien Bob's solution with iptables, Dansguardian, tinyproxy (and clamav), another solution with iptables, Dansguardian, and squid, and I've even attempted to figure out what was going on between the two and using iptables, squid, and squidGuard.

With the last solution, I seem to have correctly configured squidGuard and squid to work together, but my problem seems to be with iptables. I either get no filtering or complete filtering (i.e., I can't access any web page.

Can someone point me in the direction of a solution that has worked for them?

I never needed content filtering before, so I really don't know, but I believe a simple solution is to just use opendns and the filtering they provide through their service.

I have used the foxfilter firefox add-on:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... /foxfilter

Very easy to setup and I found that it work as good as I want.

There are also another tools:
