Title: How Can I deny access to internet?
Post by: Hugo on March 15, 2002, 08:14:18 PM

Hi everybody, I want to know how to give access to internet just to certain users.
And if possible, control that access to certain hours/connections.

Thanks for your Help

If the SME is running as your firewall then you can configure squid to block or allow specific IP Addresses  (already installed on the SME box).  To learn what configuration options you need read the docs at http://www.squid-cache.org/.  

To make the modifications you'll need to understand the SME template system and make the modifications there, otherwise the squid.conf changes you make will be blown away with a reboot.

Sorry I can't be more specific.
