Limit Websites in Ubuntu
Is there a way to limit what websites a user in Ubuntu can go to?
For example, johnd can only access example.com from his desktop? I want to block everything, except one domain. Any ideas?

Never done it before but I would imagine it'd be a firewall setting, try downloading firebird and have a look

Firestarter, I've heard it's quite popular. Even gave it a quick test run and it should do what you need (just set an outbound connection policy that only allows the user to connect to your chosen site).
Or if you want to get really fancy you could use Opera in kiosk mode.

Wow Jeeves, that's awesome. It's perfect! Thanks!
Edit: talking about Opera
