RE: URL and Content Filtering Proxy

Thank you everyone in assisting me with my question.

When I was looking for squid-cache/proxy in the ports section, low and
behold, I found privoxy in the ports web section on OpenBSD!

I expected to find proxies in the security or net ports section and not the
web section.  I guess it is all about interpretation or what a proxy was
originally designed to do.

Anyone have a great suggestion for a free URL Content Filtering Proxy port

I am trying to use Privoxy from Sourceforge but it was not really design
to
be a port or package for OpenBSD or FreeBSD.  Until I find a better
substitution or solution, I am going to try to get it working.

Or if you were able to get Privoxy working on OpenBSD or FreeBSD, please
share your method?
