Very Computer

I just networked the computers in my home and set up ip_masquerading so
that the kids' computers could use my cable modem internet access.  I'm
now wondering if there is a program available (or alternatively, one I
could write) that will allow me to monitor the names of the websites
that are accessed through that connection.  I figure there must be some
way of keeping a list of the external ip addresses that are accessed and
then doing a reverse DNS lookup to find the names.  From there, I could
just scan for certain keywords.

Any help would be very much appreciated,

Colin

2. Set up a proxy (e.g., Squid) on the machine that can still reach
the Internet.

3. Configure the kids' browsers to use the proxy.

4. Spy^H^H^Hmonitor the proxy log files as desired.  With Squid you
could also use ACLs or a redirector to prohibit access to certain
sites.
