Ok, so ignoring all the rest, I can not think of a single application or
group of applications that you can install on a computer that you would
not have to configure in order to meet your requirements. Additionally,
most of the applications that provide parts of the functionality that
you want are based on a nix platform and would require you to

it would be good for us to know how to do it.

Ok, so Leythos, you are telling me that in your opinion is that linux is
really the only way to go or using a usenet nntp proxy server? Is that
what yer basically saying? If so then so be it, I guess nothing in this
world will do stuff I'm talking about which is sad because usenet is
part of the net and for companies to disregard that and not even offer
any possible solutions for it is really pathetic and sad in my opinion. |

Oh yeah, when I saw I won't config, that just means where there would be
a ton of it like in linux and proxy stuff. The reason I won't do a proxy
is because that in effect is worse then running Nortin Internet Security
2005. I say this because NIS 2005 using the parentall control actually
does work. It filters usenet properly, but on port 119 and possibly port
80 inside a new group program like say outlook express or newsbin pro
etc. However once you change the port in those programs Norton won't
touch it and not filter. The problem with this is that you need NIS
installed on each pc. Also there is a problem with this as well in that
someone can reinstall windows or bypass NIS very easy now that I found
out how you can reset the password so easy in NIS, :(
So based on the fact that NIS 2005 does work when filtering usenet and
its own firewall can block the other ports, I would hope there is a
chance installing a software router firewall program on one pc we have
and NIS 2005 and use that pc as the router. Norton firewall would be
disabled to not conflict with the firewall router software. The only
thing that would be running from norton is the parental control and
possibly virus app to scan the pc it is running on.
Wel anyway, I'm not sure if this would work at all or not. I don't know
if norton parental control would be able to filter the wan connection
when local users want to go online to bad sites or usenet. I just don't
know. |

What I'm saying is that unless you want to use NIS (which you say will
filter Usenet), then there are limited options and you've excluded most
of them...
Blocking most of what you want can be done with standard appliances, but
to actually filter the articles (individual messages) in a usenet post
so that you're not exposed to them, is another issue entirely.
What's confusing is that you've said several times that this was for you
only, then you and no-one else in the house, then you and one other
person, and just before this you said you and your family. You needed to
give us the details at the start, not false information and changes to
the spec.
Your best bet is to get a firewall that does web-blocking based on
content and then not provide Usenet access to your kids.

Yeah, a lot of times I get vauge and don't really say everything I
should, I always forget or just with some things, don't bring them up
and I don't communicate fully, so I'm sorry.
What I know of for usenet is that I'm not wanting posts filtered, but
groups. Software does that, like Norton, however only on each pc and I
hope for a hardware device that could. I would hope to be able to put in
a keyword and say erotica, then no newsgroup with the name erotica would
work. It would be blocked. Same for pictures, sex, xxx and possibly a
couple other keywords. Then I would specifically block port 8000, 9000,
3128, 23 and 25. That is at least how I have Norton set up currently on
the pc I am using now, I have it set to block keywords like xxx, erotica
and the ones it came preset for. I just don't have it set for port
blocking cus the firewall it disabled as it was causing some issues when
I first installed it. Since that time I installed it in vmware to do
some testing and figured out how to actually use it for the firewall
port blocking. Worked great.
The filtering is for my family. I'm not married, but am staying with my
parents untill I can find a job again and then have my own place. I just
lost my job at Best Buy as they laid off all the seasonal help, :(
Umm, I know that hardware routers/appliances have some sort of logs,
reporting, bandwidth control or measurement type features, some even do
web filtering. None that I've seen would do usenet filtering on port
119. So that's where software comes in. I do have currently a Belkin
802.11G that does web filtering via cerberian, www.cerberian.com where
you select from 56 categories and so on. It's good and I know them in
fact. But this router has no usenet filtering and when trying to block
specific ports it locks up and freezes everytime.
I just called Watchgaurd and they had to call me back. The lady didn't
know what usenet was. This seems to be the norm when talking to all of
these companies, no one knows what newsgroups are. She said she'd have
the Washington Sales engineer call me back and he knows a lot more then
she does.
There is one company, I forget if it's cybergaurd or snapgear that will
alow someone to have a custom firmware, so I'd tell them to do usenet
and they'd do it, but they only do this for someone who is going to buy
like 10,000 devices. Like an OEM or something.
Well anyway, Norton does filter usenet, but that's software. If there is
no appliance that can filter ports based on keywords or what have you,
then I guess I would have to rely on software as best as software can do.
I just am not willing to learn linux and proxy stuff. I'm just not
interested in all of that stuff. So now I am looking for a software
based firewall router to put on a pc as a router along with NIS 2005.
Then I'd use the NIS 2005 parental control for filtering usenet and web
sites, but the router software to do the routing and firewall security.
If there is no software router that can work alongside NIS then I'm
hosed and just have to wait and hope a company will provide true usenet
filtering.
I liked some of the Kerio features, but they said it would not work with
Norton running at the same time. I have VMware so I just have to test it
myself. I haven't had time yet. I hope to by this Friday. If I do test
this then I will hope to post in here about that and let people know
what happens. If it works, I'll try it on a pc as a router, if it won't
then I'll just have to settle for NIS on each pc and hope we don't
bypass it.
I do realise about self control and so on and I've been seeing a
Christian therapist for several months, mostly about depression, but I
also brought up that sometimes I would look at porn and we talk about
that too. Being a christian myself it's sad for me that I look at it. So
I'm just trying to do some research on possible working solutions that
could help in hardware/software router or something. Mostly I'm
interested in hardware as I can then set it up and lock it in a room, I
can't do that with a pc because a pc is to big and I'd need to look at
it sometimes. But a pc router is an option.
I've tried a lot of the parental control software and most don't do
usenet or the ones that do, like net nanny or safeeyes and stuff, they
don't really work. The only one that works mostly is NIS 2005. Notice I
say mostly, :) It does I think from my vmware testing seem to work
fairly well, allthough I've not fully tested it.
One thing for me is this is also a project to give me something to do
and learn something.
Anyhow that's my entire whole story and I truly am sorry for not posting
that as my first post. I hope people can see past that now and forgive me. |

Ok, since those things can appear in ANY group, you are specifically
asking for posting level content filtering. Since this group could have
the word "Erotica" in it, in the posting you just made as an example,
then you have to filter based on post content.
If you could learn to separate the two ideas - Groups contain POSTS,
POSTS contain objectionable content.
So, we're back to blocking posts that contain content that meets your
definitions - not gonna happen on anything I know of or have read about.

Port blocking is something that even simple NAT boxes can do. All
firewalls can do port blocking.

Now you're talking about content filtering again - HTTP content/url
filtering. Many of the commercial firewall products can do lookups of
the IP/URL and block access based on the content categories you've
configured.

So, you want to filter for the family - if they are adults and
reasonable age kids, drop the idea of Usenet filtering (since it's not
practical - esp when you're out of a job) and go with simple filtering
ideas and then EDUCATE the users.

Dude, this is where the real issue lies - your own beliefs and lack of
control, not in the filtering. Face it, Porn has been around for
thousands of years and we're all still here. Porn, can take many forms -
some consider the Tampon Ad's on TV to be Porn, some consider pictures
of Naked women in Medical Books to be Porn, some consider pictures
uploaded to alt.binaries.sex..... to be porn. Being Christian and
viewing "porn" has nothing to do with being less Christian (or any other
religion for that matter). A certain amount of Porn is acceptable to
most, in excess it's a condition that should be talked about with a
therapist - not a religious one, a real clinical therapist.

No, you're trying to solve your inability to control your own desires,

What would have helped is to know the reasons behind it, and as I
suspected, it has nothing to do with the family or anyone else, it's
about your inability to maintain self control and a positive image of
yourself. Just accept that some porn is fine and that you won't go to
hell for viewing it as long as the porn you are viewing is not illegal
or of people being abused/exploited against their will.

I specifically am talking about blocking groups not posts. the group
with the name xxx or whatever would be blocked. like for this group if i
said in the filter to block firewall then no one would be able to access
this newsgroup or anyother newsgroup with the name firewall in it.
norton does this as do many other softwares. It was not I who got
confused about groups copntaining posts or posts containing objectional
content. i specifically said group names, that's obvious. i never
mentioned posts, but the group itself.
anyway i would prefer not to discuss things other then firewalls
hardware or software please. it is obvious nothing will do usenet like i
want so ok. i know this now. don't need to go on about it.
I have posted as a new post another question. i found something out
about my belkin router and now i would like to get a new router, so i
posted another new post asking for what kind of home based router would
be good and cheap for home broadband use that has content filtering for
web sites and some other features. i don't mean cheap as in $50, but
just not thousands. So if possible I hope people would be willing to
look over my new post and offer some suggestions. I'm more open now then
i was before now that I know usenet can't happen. So I'm willing to
listen more and be more open.
Thanks guys. |

You are right, I took your description to mean both group names and also
post content, Sorry.
There is still one problem with it - I, as an example, sometimes
download Military images from non-porn/sex groups, but, once in a while
some lamer will post porn to the group - you're filter, based on group
name, would not prevent that.

Or use Squid+Dansguardian to do web-blocking and then configure
your kids accounts so they *can't* change the usenet groups they
are suscribed to. You can do this with permissions.
As for email, just download your children email, read them all,
remove the messages not aproppiate and let them read the ones
they can read.
Anyway, the best thing I can advise you it's *always* be with
your children when they connect to the Internet. That's the
greatest protection you will have.

ESPAŅA
The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow Roman candles.

You might want to put an ICS box on your wireless
network, and the run NewsProxy. You can filter out
Usenet you do not want seen. NewsProxy is a proxy
that sits between your network, and the news server
you connect to. You will need to have an extra machine
to use ICS, or some other kind of NAT software on it.
I can't do software based.
Why not? All you need is the right equipment to do
so.
I'm only interested in a router firewall thing. i am not interested in
software for tons of reasons. I just don't want to explain.
Well, you will have to use software, if you want to do it right
ok, then what software? also there can not be one pc that everything goes
through, this just can not happen.

It will have to be that way. There is really no other
way you can do it, if you want to do it right. |
