Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my message.
I have started working with the K12LTSP 4.0 on a new system and I have a
quick question or two. The LTSP will pretty much be used only for Word
Processing, Spreadsheets & Internet access. I would like to monitor
internet access specifically. I am assuming that Squid and SquidGuard
are installed with the complete LTSP install. I was able to install
Webmin which told me that Squid was running. In addition when I checked
the system log I can see where SquidGuard was started. I was able to
locate the blacklist folder and checkout some of the addresses and urls
of sites that are supposed to be blocked. However, when I type in the
url via lynx and mozilla I am able to get to the sites. I am not
familiar enough to know where to go from here. I have attempted to find
HowTo's but the links are either dead links or the files that are
referenced in the Howto are in different locations, so I figured it
would be best for me to post here and ask for advice.
Concerning the monitoring, I read that Sarg would be best for monitoring
internet usage. Naturally, if my squid/squidguard do not appear to be
fully working I figured I had better not get too far gone. Does anyone
know of a HowTo that would assist with Sarg?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as would links to good sites for
reference.
Thanks,
Michael
