Isn't controlling web content the whole purpose of the Dansguardian contrib?

Stefano:
@stephdl: AFAIK no
@RequestedDeletion: AFAIK, neither squidguard nor dansguardian contrib can selectively deny access to https sites

Here is one way:

Add whatever domain you wish to block access to eg facebook.com, as a virtual domain in the Domains panel of server manager.
Configure the panel to resolve DNS locally for that domain, & then when users access https://facebook.com they will be directed to your main domain website.

In DG you can block access to the login site (check logs to see actual pages being accessed), if you cannot login you cannot access facebook etc.

in this way you have some side effects.. let's say I want to block playboy.com (i.e. I don't want my user surf playboy's website).. if I add playboycom to my domains, I'll never be able to send an email to that domain.. and this can be an issue...
