Blocking offensive words
-
Good Morning Sir,
how to block offensive word in pfsense?

If you are trying to restrict access to content, one option is to configure pfSense to use OpenDNS free family shield account.

If you register for an account, you can customize the OpenDNS filter options.
- Configure DyDNS OpenDNS updater
- Configure pfSense to point to OpenDNS familyshield nameservers
208.67.222.123 208.67.220.123- Add a NAT rule to redirect all outbound DNS requests to point back to pfSense
The advantage is it filters all devices without having to install a client on each and every device.
Otherwise, I think you would have to install some sort of browser plugin on each client to filter specific words.

If you actually want to block page content you can only do that using Squid in full SSL intercept mode. Setting that up is a significant task.

@stephenw10 do you have a tutorial sir?
-
There are numerous youtube videos detailing it. The slides from our old hangout are still available here:
https://www.slideshare.net/NetgateUSA/squid-squidguard-and-lightsquid-on-pfsense-23-24-pfsense-hangout-january-2017I will say that Squid is outdated at this point and may be removed in the future unless it's fixed upstream.
