restricting internet access for some users
Hello,
On a computer connected to a router, which in turn is connected to the
internet (more or less constantly), how do I restrict some users from
accessing the internet.
The lan is actually in a small community office. A couple of computers
are for the staff, but a third is set aside for a number of public users
to use. It is running Ubuntu. I was asked how to restrict internet
access from that computer (for example, users should be allowed to
connect to the internet only during certain hours of a day) on a user by
user basis. I am more familiar with Debian, hence the query here.
Apparently, they want the administrator to have free access, but
restricted access for other users on that computer.
Pointers will be helpful too,
thanks,
