Hai all, blocking https://www.facebook.com is working for me, but how to block only http://apps.facebook.com & https://apps.facebook.com without blocking normal facebook.com ? :)

You can try with a proxy server instead of firewall rules but I'm not sure if you can block apps.facebook without blocking facebook at all.

any help.. -
transparent + https isn't going to work. firewall rules with alias and https will do the work

IF you want my advice.. I use Squid with Squid Guard to block Facebook and other social media websites. But i understand it can get complicated. A really easy solution is to use opendns.com which is truely amazing with the amount of protection you can get for your network.

well guys can you help me please make it work this https://www.facebook.com? cause I cant figure out how to make it work using pfsense 2.03 using last stable squid package, squidguard and lightsquid, my wan and lan and cisco router are on the same range , Cisco does the nat , but also the pfsense has its default nat enabled rules, also I didn't make any firewall rules besides the default automatic ones which allow any lan traffic, wan has no firewall rule, cisco is the gateway for wan interface, and the wan interface is the gateway for the lan interface, also there no static routes in place. . Google https works, my company https works, some other https sites work, but facebook wont work although its allowed on acl list
Please help I am a newbie.
when I don't use proxy the facebook page is oki -
This is what I did to block Facebook.com along with squid-guard. But on the other-hand users can still use ultra-surf or change their dns to either google or any other one and access that stupid site! >:(
with DNS forwarder enabled! but remember blocking (check the img) this way blocks everyone on the LAN!
successfully working! ;)
