Rob,
What's the url to get the DansGuardian addons? tried http://www.dageek.co.uk
BUT it's either been hacked or the navigation is far to obscure for me...
currently it's showing a smiley face sticking out it's tongue!

IPCop 1.3 has been running on my network since it was available as well and
I
highly recommend it.

My kids are into internet games so I installed the DansGuardian addons from
dageek.co.uk which is a very configurable monitor/content manager which I
think would be very useful in a corporate environment. You can restrict
access to particular types of sites/content or just run in rat-trap mode
which logs deviant activity (quietly).

These features might be available in smoothwall too. I downloaded it but
haven't had the need/urge to try it. I liked the look of the 2.0 toaster on
their site but my fascination ends there.
