      Just create a firewall rule with the appropriate IP?

      (Firewall–>Rules.......)

        Yes, I know that. The orkut's ips is:

        209.85.193.85
        209.85.193.86
        209.85.193.87
        209.85.193.94

        But, if I create a rule denying these IPs, the access to www.orkut.com is still keeping allowed.

        I noticed that when the site www.orkut.com is opened, the browser redirect the www.orkut.com to https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=orkut&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.orkut.com%2FRedirLogin.aspx%3Fmsg%3D0%26page%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.orkut.com%252F&hl=pt-BR&passive=true

        My problem is: How can I block the site www.orkut.com?

        P.S.: the squid does not works because the orkut uses https.

          hmm… if orkut.com only relais to a google server then i dont think you can use normal firewallrules.

          what you could try:
          If your clients use pfSense als DNS Server you could setup on the DNSforwarder-config-page a new DNS-authorative server that does not resolve the domain.
          You can override whol domains there.
          Just set the DNS server to something invalid and your clients behind pfSense should no longer be able to resolve orkut.com
          But if your clients access the google-page page directly.......

          I dont really know squid but i think there should be some way to filter this with it.
          Maybe someone else could help you with this.

            A correction:

            iptables -A FORWARD -d www.orkut.com -p tcp –dport 443 -j DROP does not works on freebsd. This is a rule of linux iptables. I'm sorry…

            Backing on the orkut:

            I do this in DNSforwarder-config-page:

            Below you can override an entire domain by specifying an authoritative dns server to be queried for that domain.

            Domain                  IP          Description 
            www.orkut.com  0.0.0.0        Orkut   
            orkut                        0.0.0.0      Orkut 
            orkut.com              0.0.0.0            Orkut

            I click on save, but does not works…. :(    The f**** orkut is keeping had access

            Do I somenting wrong?

              nothing wrong. Just tried it too.
              i never really worked with the override domain thing and it was just an idea. But apparently one that does not work :)

              maybe someone from the squid-camp in this forum can help you.

                Ok thanks for the help.

                One more thing:

                it's possible to insert a pf rule seemed with this iptables rule on pfsense's web-interface?

                iptables -A FORWARD -d www.orkut.com -p tcp –dport 443 -j DROP

                In the Internet, many sites say that this rule is enough to block orkut, because it blocks the domain orkut, not the IP's. But this rule only works in iptables. I do not know I eat to translate it for pfsense.

                This is my last shot before go to the squid-camp

                    Which script initiates pf in the pfsense and where it is located?

                    In the /etc/defaults/rc.conf, the tag pf_enable is set to "NO".
                    The /etc/pf.conf is entirely commented.

                    It's impossible to insert that iptables rule, of course translated to pf, through pfsense's web-interface?

                    thanks for the help.

                      Your users need to have ONLY pfsense as their DNS server. That will work. If they have other sources for DNS then it will not work
