[CLUG] Help With Home Network Security.

[adam]

Hi Paul,

+                     I have a very small home network runnung at present
+ between my linux mandreake 8.2 box and my kids windows Me box,
+ my linux box acts as an internet server to my kids machine. I am
+ wondering if there is a way of keeping tabs on what they are doing on
+ the net in terms of web site's visited, images viewed, Java type chat
+ rooms visited (IRC is not installed on their computer) and such without
+ having to look at the cached internet files in their computer, is there
+ a way of doing this with the current software I have or do I need to get
+ new software. Your help in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Squid?

Not sure about chat rooms, but you can monitor the URL's they visit anyway.
Saved in an access log, which you could mine for keywords daily. Or summat.

Just a suggestion.
