Re: How to block a certain website with m0n0wall?

Wasn't germany planning on doing something similar to opendns? of course 
the easy way around this is to set an authoritative DNS on the local 
machine, but then setting appropriate firewall rules on 53 combats that 
workaround.

Just an idea, would squid be able to cache a parked page for certain 
domains and just be told to never update its cache? -- i've never used 
squid before, just an idea.
