Hi, I work for a mid-sized company (about 300 people in my building) and I would like to set up a BSD box to listen to network traffic and email me whenever someone accesses a prohibited site. (eg Porn, Warez, gambling...) tcpdump seems like a good place to start, but has anyone had any experience using it for something like this? If so how did you get it to work? Part of the reason I want this information (aside from being the network snitch) is because I want to eventually justify purchasing a fairly large server that I can run Squid on with content filters. I've already set up a small test box that works quite well, but it slows down when too much of a load is placed on it (it's a P-100 with 24MB ram). Any help would be appreciated.
