Restricting Access to the Internet

Restricting a child user’s access to the internet. Restricting Access to the Internet

You can restrict a user’s access to the internet. This will prevent them using a web browser, but it will not prevent them using the internet (in potentially more limited forms) through other applications. For example, it will not prevent access to e-mail accounts using Evolution, and it will not prevent software updates being downloaded and applied.

To restrict a user’s access to the internet:

Open the Parental Controls application.

Select the user in the tabs at the top.

Enable the Restrict Web Browsers checkbox.
