Re: [LI] How to Restrict users from accesing some particular site

[linuxfan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Best way to restrict a site is to restrict it at NIC level via IPCHAINS
command. Proxies are OK but if the cliant disables proxy he can recah to
that site.
here is exact ipchain command.
Suppose you wish to reject hotmail the via DNS name the coomand is as
follows

ipchains -A output -d www.hotmail.com -j REJECT

Suppose you wish to stop a particular IP then the command is as folows


ipchains -A output -d 209.185.243.135/24 -j REJECT
