[H-GEN] Intrest in Tron movie outing?

[Mick Campbell]

+1 for Tron

Question about 'Net Nanny" for Linux.

I have 2 old laptops I have installed Xubuntu on and giving to my
Godsons starting High School next year.

>From my research on this it seems the best method of monitoring and
reporting their Internet abuse is to:

1. Install transparent squid proxy logging the URLs
2. Install reporting tool like SARG to generate a report once a week
which typically outputs a web page to /var/www/html
3. Run a cron job once a week to have sendmail email this page to their
parents to check.

This is probably beyond my current levels of knowledge, especially squid
and SARG which have conf files more complicated then SAMBA, though it
does sound like a fun learning project, never having done things with
iptables and cron before.

My question is, is there an easier way I have not been able to find?
Dans Guardian doesn't seem to do what I need.
