Question Parental controls on Linux


Has anyone implemented or know of any parental controls in Mozilla or other Linux Browser? I'd like to put RH9 on my daughters PC, but I can't find any parental control or content advisor software for linux. I looked at censornet.com, but that seems like overkill.

Thanks,
Eric

did you try...

A quick search on google for content filtering linux brought up several sites including http://www.dansguardian.org

Seems decent enough to get your system doing content filtering. I don't know the specifics on setup or anything, but I'm sure it's not going to be a pain (pfft...yeah right)

dansguardian.org looks great. Hopefully implementation isn't that hard. I'll keep the thread update on ease of use.
