[K12OSN] internet content filtering

[Petre Scheie]

Time or money: You can purchase SmoothGuardian at www.smoothwall.net, 
which is the 'official' commercial version of Dansguardian.  Presumably, 
buying that will include support for getting it setup.  For 500 users 
it's $1770, but that might be money well spent if you're in a hurry.  
Me, I'd spend a day or two trying to do it on my own before plunking 
down the money, especially since several others here on the list are 
already using Dansguardian.

>After looking into content filtering a little bit, it seems to me that it is unlikely that I will have the necessary knowledge to install iptables, squidguard, and Dan's Guardian, by the time school starts.  It just seems too complicated for me at this point.  Is there a reasonably priced content filtering program that I could purchase and install via cd to my server that would get me through this year? I've seen several that either do not give pricing, or charge per machine.  Technically, I'd only be installing on ONE machine.  Any direction on this would be appreciated. Thanks! -Will
