Hi All,
I have been experiencing one major issue with trying to use Parental Controls on stand-alone machines behind an authenticated proxy. Everytime Parental controls is enabled on a particular standard user, internet access for that user is suddenly disabled.
I have tested by creating a new user named 'student' and browsing the net with Safari and Firefox on an iMac running 10.5.3. When I enable Parental Controls (leaving all the default settings as they are), log off the student, then log back on as the student... browsing in both Safari and Firefox is disabled with the exception of local websites which do not use the proxy server.
I'm wondering if this may be something to do with ports being blocked when Parental Controls are turned on as we use port 8080
for our proxy server rather than 3128.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Cheers,
PJR
