<div>List of hardware:</div>

<div>two 8 port hubs</div>
<div>one fairly new IBM compatible PC with two NICs (acting as filter)</div>
<div>one DSL Modem and connection</div>
<div>8 IBM compatible workstations</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Notes: From one of the workstations, be able to limit the access on any number of the 8 workstations so that Internet access would be completely excluded. All this without affecting the browse-ability of other workstations on the LAN (with File sharing and Printer sharing). The machine names and IP Addresses would be known.

<div>I think that this type of software would fill a very common need in very small businesses (less than 10 employees).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Any ideas?</div>
