simply use a firewall and block the ports for the game

only allow "www" and others to be more precise

regards

By default, my firewall has blocked others ports only allow ports 20,21,80,110,443. However the users still can play online game such as: LineAge, GunBound,... Can you show me the port of some game online for example?
Thank you very much.

i do not have those games so i cannot tell u about those ports

why don't u try and look for those games

u can also block the ip addres of their game site

as far as firewall is concerned

IPtables is a good firewall and shorewall is a good frontend for it

regards

Yeah, you are right. This is the current way that i have done. I have deny user played game online by put address in my black list of Squid proxy. Ex: "gunbound", all user can't play and can't access to gunbound website . If i have a IP address of every server game online, i can deny without message instead of web address.
Do you have any suggestion?
