[K12OSN] OT: Monitoring IM

[Henry Hartley]

This is sort of off topic but possibly not completely.  I have a K12LTSP
machine that is currently not actually serving any clients.  We're
"between houses" right now and our rental doesn't have any internet
access so right now this isn't an issue.  My plan for our new houses is
to set up a small K12LTSP server with three clients.  I've got a
Smoothwall and DansGuardian box set up and that seems to work pretty
well for what it is but as far as I know, it won't help me here (and
obviously it isn't doing *anything* right now).  

My daughter is starting to ask if she can use instant messaging with her
friends.  So far we've been able to just say no and we may do that for a
while but sooner or later, she's going to get herself an account and
start IMing.  I figure I'm better off if I can be the one setting things
up.  I guess what I'm looking for is something that will let me 

a) limit connections to a list of IM accounts that I can monitor
b) keep a log of all messaging
c) anything else I haven't thought of but should do

Any suggestions are welcome.
