Stop Streaming Media & Video Downloads!
« on: August 25, 2006, 08:41:19 PM »
Other than DansGuardian, is there any other (simple) way to stop streaming media and video downloads?
 
* HR and Management have a problem with users goofing off all day because of CNN, Google video search, You Tube and the zillions of other convergence sites.

* I have a problem with users hogging bandwidth.
 
I am running SME Server 6.0.1-01 with everything on smeplus.rpm installed.
We have three branch offices (FreeSwan) and fourty users.
 
I have done a bit of routing and traffic control stuff CBQ, but I am looking for a way to stop the video downloads cold.
 
I've seen this done at other companies.  What have their IT wizards got that I (we) haven't got?
 
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Nate
