Hi,
There are several server-side solutions you could use to address this issue.
The first involves the use of Group Policies to enforce what your users can, and
cannot access. I'm not too comfortable getting into the technical details of
setting up such a policy, simply because I don't consider myself intimate with
the process involved.
However, I encourage you to post a query in regards to the applicability of
using group policy on the Windows 2000 Group Policy forum:
Community members there are very familiar with group policy on a 2000
server, and would be able to offer competent advice on how to go about securing
your server through the use of Group Policies.
You may also wish to read the following overview on Group Policy in a 2000
environment:
Unless I am mistaken, Group Policy would allow you to set sites to which
employees are allowed to visit, and deny access to the rest of them. You may opt
to investigate whether such a decision warranted, because, depending on what you
do, it may lead to significant disruptions in how employees work.
Alternatively, you may opt to accord different employees different
privileges, depending on their role within your organization, or your trust
relationship with them.
As I previously mentioned, there do exist third party programs which list
and block sites of an unproductive, pornographic, or irrelevant nature, however
they are of an extremely subjective nature, so care should be taken to ensure
you use a quality provider, or, at minimum, a provider allowing you to stipulate
various tolerances to subjects.
I am sorry I cannot help you more specifically,
Best regards,
Altrus
