Hello,

I have been given a task that I donīt know were to start, so Iīm asking fellow list subscribers for some guidance.

I need to implement web restrictions for different departments. For example, I need that the marketing department has access to hotmail.com but not the rest of the company. On the same level, I need that the tech support and engineers have access to only a few selected websites. This is only a small example of all the rules I need to implement.

I was thinking of a way to integrate squid with our Active Directory. So, when a user tries to surf the web, squid queries our AD and sees which "group" that user belongs to and apply a certain rule.

If anybody has documents or some literature to, at least, point me to the right path on how to get started, I would be very grateful.

Or if there is a easier way to implement this, please let me know.

Thank you,

Fred Pohl
