First, per the signup e-mail, my name is Jack Hardcastle and in a month I'll
take over as director of technology at the McDonogh School outside
Baltimore, Maryland. We're a private co-ed K-12 college prep school with
about 1300 students and 250 faculty and staff. :D
Second, I have been searching the ISED archives for information about this
topic, but I find nothing more current than messages from 2000. How do you
accomplish web filtering? The product we purchased several years ago went
from $5,000 to $30,000 after several acquisitions, and we're looking for
other options.
Do you use a software solution? Do you use an appliance? Do you do
named-user licensing (expensive) or do you have one filter for your whole
institution (students AND faculty), and if so how do you deal with allowing
productivity for faculty while protecting little ones from the dark alleys
of the net?
Thanks,
Jack Hardcastle
