Hi Henrik,

n2h2 content filter is the product we are using - I believe the actual
product line name is Bess.

it can work with squid as the n2h2 people have written a redirector for
squid but (by n2h2s own admission) it doesnt work very well. It doesnt do
user or group based filtering and it can only handle 150 connections per
second - our environment will be generating 300 connections per second. We
wanted to use squid but our customer decided they wanted the user and group
filtering so we had to go to a Cisco Content Engine.

Cheers

May I ask which content filter software you use?
