another route ?<br>

I agree with others and would suggest you learn Squid. <br>
It can be setup as a blind proxy, has caching ability, is fairly fast
and is not hard to learn.<br>
I have a script that updates several lists I use. The update script
runs at night. It updates "porn" and "ad servers" lists.<br>
I also use "Webalizer - Squid" and "Sarg" to automate the reports of
what Squid is doing.<br>
In the past 6-12 months I have only had to make a couple of minor
adjustments, everything else is handled by the automated scripts.<br>

<div>Hello, does anyone know of software that monitors web sites
visited, and restricts unwanted sites without beng an actual proxy?
Presently we have squid. It was a system we inherited. But I don't
understand exactly how everything works. Neither does anyone else.
The new boss says he doesn't like it. My task is to find something
simpler than squid. The new boss says we don't use the proxy features
of squid, and so don't need that. He said, "find something else."
It doesn't have to be free. Could be HW or SW. I appreciate any
help anyone can give. Thanks, Dean</div>
