This month’s Salt Lake Linux Users Group meeting will be on content/web filtering with Dan’s Guardian and presented by Kerry Cox, CIO, Mountain Medical.
From dansguardian.org:
“DansGuardian is an award winning Open Source web content filter which currently runs on Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Mac OS X, HP-UX, and Solaris. It filters the actual content of pages based on many methods including phrase matching, PICS filtering and URL filtering. It does not purely filter based on a banned list of sites like lesser totally commercial filters.
DansGuardian is designed to be completely flexible and allows you to tailor the filtering to your exact needs. It can be as draconian or as unobstructive as you want. The default settings are geared towards what a primary school might want but DansGuardian puts you in control of what you want to block.”

If you missed it a couple weeks ago I posted my thoughts on what I feel the real reason for Apple not wanting flash on the iPhone and iPad are here in “Steve Jobs’ thoughts on flash and the Real reason there’s no flash on iPhone” continue reading…
