If your internal machines need to talk to the web, and you wish to control or restrict that behavior, the canonical solution is to setup a proxy server and firewall which blocks Internet access for everything except the proxy. > Since all of the machines are downloading the exact same file, we > would like to setup a local portaudit server.

You could also use rsync to copy /var/db/portaudit from the external server to your internal machines on a daily basis via a cron job. -- -Chuck _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
