Nxfilter modify dashboard Patch#

The fact that it requires Java on the server is the second scary thing - like I really need another vulnerability to add to my network - so thus I have to start patching Java now - just for this one app? - I've got enough to patch already.

Great that apparently now you can script/schedule the download of 3rd party lists to be used by NxFilter, did not know that - but as far as my research goes - the two source lists explicitly say on the site 'for non-commercial use' I personally don't want to be cut-off some day because they find my IP has been downloading their file daily, weekly, whatever - without auto-updating regularly, any web filter becomes useless.

It's free today, but does that mean it's going to be free forever? (OpenDNS also did that bait and switch, not sure how well it's working out) Lots of things have been offered for free before, allot of those things become vaporware, or sell your info out the back door to make $$ - I, personally, just don't trust 'free' unless it's entirely open source. The conversation between thecreativeone91 and jinhee200 reads very much like a self-promoted discussion - sorry to be honest/blunt about it.įor me, the 'free' part of Nxfilter is what scares me most. Guys - use whatever you want - I just happen to use DNS Redirector and pointed it out as an alternative - or am I misunderstanding how a forum works? Are you saying one person posts a question about one product, and then only the developer of that product responds with how wonderful it is - that doesn't seem very. Where are the URL blacklist stored in the directory structure of nxfilter? Good thing is that we're getting more and more users for NxFilter and I am going toward my goal. And you don't need to pay any money if it's nothing better than a free option or even worse than a free option. These days web-filters are too expensive.

But if we have several thousands users for NxFilter at least I think I can do something about it. Anyway NxFilter can be free as long as it uses free DB. So some of the people in this forum paying for them even though they're nothing better than NxFilter which is free.Ĭurrently I am working on building a new kind of security solution with some other company and it will have the biggest DB in the market but will not be free. Some of them are nothing better than Shallalist or URLBlacklist but they're still commercial.

Coz I tested several commercial url-db these days. Jinhee200, the author of the program is also a member of Spiceworks and he should be able to give you the correct answer.įor you it might be too small but for other people it might be big enough. If I recall correctly, you have a script at logon that call the program required with the IP address of the system. I remember having some issues with the SSO also, but in the end I made it work for my test account. I tried it a few months ago, and It didn't fit with us because of the Blacklist db that was too small. It looks more like something I'd see in a Hotel/Airport/coffee shop. Honestly that DNS Redirector doesn't look like a cooperate solution. I'd rather use DNS filtering as presumably it would use less resources on my VM servers than something like a proxy server would, which can use a fare amount of resources to keep up with demand, DNS servers on the other hand are a lot more lightweight.

I'm not paying for a web filter solution I will preferably use NxFilter or make my own Squid box.

Why would I go for a paid solution just to get auto-updates? It's super easy to setup WGET on windows with a script to download files, move the correct file to the needed location and then cleanup when down, and it could even be run by the task scheduler.

Nxfilter modify dashboard password#

We're still using DNS Redirector Opens a new windowtoday - auto-updates categories, and doesn't require Java - not much AD integration beyond password bypass, but that's all we need. I tried it - did not like that it didn't auto-update the blacklist categories, and technically the sources of which are for non-commercial use - did not like that it required Java on the server.
