How can I control internet access of clients

Hi all,
I don't know how I can limit or stop internet activities on client computers. We have windows XP and Mac computer in our network. We use domain. If you have any suggestion about this, please let me know. Thanks

I've been wondering about this myself. I'm new to OSX server so I'm not all that familiar with the range of software and setups that are out there. This weekend however, I plan to take my Server and install another ethernet card in it. I'll proceed to hook one ethernet card into my DSL router and the built in card to the rest of the network.
I already have DNS set up in my server admin, but I'll additionally need to set up NAT and DHCP, i think this can be done through the 'Gateway Setup Assistant', but I think I know how to do it in server admin should that fail.
Once that's set up, users will access the internet directly through the gateway provided by the OSX Server. I'm not sure what kind of built in monitoring mechanisms are provided, but judging from the lack of detail I've found in my own research I'd say they're insufficient at best.
I'm looking to installing Viacoms "Intercept" software (http://www.vicomsoft.com/download/download.main.html) on the mac, it has a range of monitoring tools I think I'll need, also they offer a 2 week demo version for download. So it's worth a try
Hope this helps you save some time...

  • TS1398 As a truck driver, I don't have internet access, my cell phone doesn't support Apple yet either,,, How can i gain internet access on the road if I'm rolling and not in a stationary place for wifi?

    I recently purchased an i pad and have the internet at home, I am also a truck driver and once i leave home, I won't have the internet unless I stop close to where there is wifi, is there anything out there that I can purchase so I will have the internet at all times

    I purchased a Verizon MIFI 2200 mobile hotspot with my forst generation iPad almost tow years ago so that I could have internet access with my WiFi only iPad and my iPod Touch. All in all it is pretty reliable but as varjak paw stated above...
    "Either of course will be dependening on your being in a location where the carrier provides cell coverage".
    Like my cell phone - there are locations where the MIFI doesn't play nice with the cellular networks and it may struggle to find a good signal. On the other hand, sometimes my connection zips along quite nicely. Just keep that in mind - if and when you decide to purchase a mobile hotspot.

  • Can I control Internet Access Centrally from the H...

    Hi,
    Is it posible to block access to certain categories of internet web sites directly from the hub using OPENDNS or any other method?
    I can set access times using the bthomehub, but I would like to be able to check/limit the material they are able to access as well. 
    Can I apply this control centrally from the hub and not have to set up the control on individual machines in my home, as I would if I use the BT Netprotect.
    My kids access the internet with ipads and phones and so a central solution from the hub would be ideal.
    Thanks
    Solved!

  • How can I control the setting of quicktime x internet connection speed

    In apple website, They provides a lot of tutorial videos, But thanks to my internet low bandwidth, only low resolution of video can be seen. At the time of leopard(not snow) and quicktime 7, I found that if I select the bandwidth to "LAN" in quicktime control panel of system preference, the video size went up from 480 to 640 pixelin height (although more loading time..)
    Are there any way to control quicktime bandwidth in snow leopard? (quicktime X or quicktime 7 for sowleopard)

    Hi,
    1. How much clients can connect to an access-point (maximum possible vs. recommended)?
    ANS -
    here is the link for Maximum possible..
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/7.0/configuration/guide/
    c70ccfg.html#wp1085099
    Recommended , Not more than 20 clients per AP.
    2.  Can I limit the maximum number of clients connecting to the same  access-point in the controller gui? I only found how to configure  thresholds for sending traps when a specified number of connected  clients on an ap is reached.
    ANS - Here is the software bug whic we had raised with thre development team..
    http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCtj94508
    Symptom:
    There should be a way to limit the number of wireless clients that can associate to a lightweight AP.
    Conditions:
    Workaround:
    3. How can I balance the number of clients between two adjacent ap which are using the same SSID?
    ANS- You can configure the feature Aggressive load balancing on the WLC, this may help..
    lemme know if this answered your question..

    how can I turn off access to the internet at scheduled times? I use an Airport extreme and several units to extend the range. Kids have multiple devices that I don't want on the network at certain hours. On the other hand, ideally, my wife and I would like to be able to access the internet with our devices after the kid's bedtime and during their school study time.

  • How can I open Internet explorer only pages on a mac? The website that I need to access only permits internet explorer

    How can I open Internet explorer 'only' pages on a mac, without creating a drive partition and installing windows separately?
    I've tried winbottler, but it doesn't seem to serve my purpose. The web site that I'm trying to access only permits Internet explorer.

    Microsoft has not written IE for Mac for years so unless you want to create a parition and install Windows, or user a Windows emulator, you're out of luck for installing IE on a Mac.
    The web site that I'm trying to access
    There might be a work around for you since it's just the one site.
    Go to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Enable the Develop menu.
    Now click Develop from the Safari menu bar then click User Agent > IE 9, 8, or 7

  • How can OWB apply information access control policy?

    Hi friends,
    My question is "how can OWB apply information access control policy in DW?"
    Regards

    Hi,
    what exactly do you mean by "information access control policy"?
    What you cannot do in owb is define grants or virtual private database (vpd) constraints.
    What you can do is restrict the developer's access to owb objects in the repository.

  • As a stockholder, I would like see the development of iTV with Retina display and integrating Siri control, internet access, and iTunes apps. This new product would be a large screen, thin wall mounted television, much like a oversided iPad.

    As a stockholder, I would like see the development of iTV with Retina display and integrating Siri control, internet access, and iTunes apps. This new product would be a large screen, thin wall mounted television, much like a oversided iPad.
    Do you think this product is possible?

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • How can I control the zoom on my mac mouse?

    How can I control the zoom function on my mouse? In the middle of working on things my hand will rub the mouse by accident and all of a sudden the context within the screen is large. I have no idea of how to work this feature on my mouse and most times to get it to return to normal, I have to escape out of the work I am performing.

    If you are pressing the "Control" button on the Mac keyboard, scrolling up will zoom in and scrolling down will zoom out. You can disable this if it annoys you through System Preferences > Universal Access. If you are using Mountain Lion, it would be System Preferences > Accessibility.
    Uncheck the in the "Seeing" or "Zoom" section that says "Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom".  It may be slightly different if you have an older OS X version. I have Mountain Lion and am going off of memory on the older versions.

  • How can I control a button from one swf file to another swf file?

    Hi,
    I have a main.swf file. From that file I am accessing the external.swf file which is an external file.
    Now, how can I write code on my main.swf file for the button which is on my external.swf file?
    Activities.MainPanel.close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickClose);
    Activities.MainPanel.close_btn (This buttons is actually on external.swf file, but I want to write code on main.swf file to execute it on external.swf) how can I control one swf button on other swf file?
    Thanks.

    Here's some example code that you should be able to adapt to your needs.
    // create a new loader object instance...
    var loader:Loader = new Loader();
    // make the download request...
    var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("external.swf");
    // add a complete event listener to the loader
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
    // start the actual loading process...
    loader.load(request);
    // create a new empty movieClip instance, you will put the loaded movie into this movieClip once its loaded
    var externalMovie:MovieClip;
    // this function is called when the download has finished and the file is ready to use...
    function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
       // set the contents of the loaded movie to the new empty movieClip...
               externalMovie = MovieClip(event.target.content);
       // add this new movie to the display list...
       addChild(externalMovie);
    Now you can refer to the loaded movie with the instance name "externalMovie". So if, for instance, you want to address a button in the loaded movie, you could write something like this on the main timeline:
    externalMovie.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickClose);
    function btnClickClose(event:MouseEvent):void {

  • How can I control my fan speed?

    How can I control my fan speed on my macbook pro? I use SMC for gaming and streaming video from the internet when using my Mac OS, but I partitioned my drive and installed Windows 8 in order to play a different game (not a huge game) and the computer heats up dramatically when playing on Windows through Boot Camp to the point that it freezes every time (it never does this when playing a mac game or streaming on the normal partition Mac OS).
    Any suggestions or programs to control fan speed of the mac from windows?

    Get a cooling pad.  That will much better than trying to constantly adjust fan speeds.
    Ciao.

  • How can a file be accessed by more than one app?

    Hi,
    I am new to iOS4 and the whole iPhone, iPod technology. I am really a windows user.
    How can a file be accessed by more than one app. In my case I want to transfer a midi file from my PC to my iPod Touch and be able to open it from a couple of Midi Players which I am evaluating - or does each Midi Player have to import the file seperately for its own use?
    Thanks,
    Sam

    It seems to me that what you want is exactly a session bean will do. The EJB container is responsible to maintain a certain number instances (configurable) of your session bean and serve multiple clients at the same time. Session beans are not necessarily destroyed after serving a client. If you configure your ejb server to have a pool size of 2 to 100, then you will always have at least 2 instances (no more than 100 even there are a lot of client access) of this ejb ready to serve. The only thing not clear to me is that do you want to use only ONE instance of this bean or you don't care as long as multiple clients can access this bean's service? Since you mentioned that there is not a real database access, you can certainly use a Singleton but a 'regular' session bean with static fields should do it also if these fields will not be modified by clients.

  • I HAVE AN IPAD 2 WITH WIFI ONLY, CAN I GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM ANY SMARTPHONE, OR DO I NEED A SPECIFIC PHONE FOR THIS?

    i ave an ipad 2 with wifi only, can i get internet access from any cell phone, or do i need a specific phone or type of phone

    I received an iPad 2 for Christmas (the 1st Apple item I've ever owned!) and own a Nokia N95 8GB mobile (that's pretty much on its last legs/ready to die any day).
    On the Nokia I've got 2 apps (downloaded from/via Nokia's 'Ovi' app store): JoikuSpot & HandyWi. Both are the free versions.
    I've not used HandyWi much - if at all - but JoikuSpot has been great. Basically, it creates a wifi hotspot (as pjl123 mentioned) in a couple of straightforward steps, and allows a few devices to be connected. It displays who/what is connected at a given time - so you can check if the guy having coffee behind you is piggybacking your hotspot or not! - data packets sent received etc.
    The paid version has the benefit of allowing you to secure the hotspot and other security features.  Their website is www.joiku.com, FYI.
    Given how slow behind the 8 ball Nokia has been, their phones are getting cheaper and cheaper - given Joiku's meant to work with Nokia S60, Symbian ^3, Maemo, Meego & Sony Ericsson S60, this might be a cost effective option.
    Ps. Ah! One more thing - Joiku's website specifies that 3G must be used; that WAP will not work. Good luck, enjoy!

  • Apple TV uploads can take up to 30 minutes. I need control over this, because it interrupts my presentations. How can I control the time it chooses to do uploads?

    Apple TV uploads can take up to 30 minutes. I need control over this, because it interrupts my presentations. How can I control the time it chooses to do uploads?

    this is exactly the kind of response i expected, almost begged support to please not do this to me and yet there it is another meaningless, non helpful, standard template response to restart my apple tv.
    this does NOT work which is why i am contacting you. i have tried all suggestions about unplugging and restarting and nothing works.
    i live in an apartment and logon to the provided wifi wireless. so i do not have access to a router. however, management says they have talked with their provider and have been assured that the required ports are available.
    remember all the jokes about how bad windows was because the solution was always to re boot. funny huh? how is apple any different.
    i have been to the local apple care store and they are clueless, too.
    should we just end it here and you admit that i will not be getting any support from apple on this one? i got the ipad because my kids were such big fans. it is difficult for me to share their enthusiasm.
    at this point i am just curious about how you say you cannot support your own product so i can complete my file on this contact.
    thanks...sorry it was you who got this problem..
