    If you add firewall into your proxy in that case not possible that site. If you allow any site no matter it's video or normal site, Site is just show.

      Good day Forhads, one more question, you can configure a proxy server, inside a virtual machine, and this server we can add as many sites we want and also set up schedules to allow or denied access base on hour of the day? also with sites like facebook that has many URLs how does this work?

    Few doubts:
    1. Do you need the entire VM or just the configuration for the VM ?
    2. Do you want to exclude/allow users based on their IP or their username?
    3. Do you want all this to be on command line only or do you need any UI for this?

      Hi Kiran and sorry for the delay

      1. Do you need the entire VM or just the configuration for the VM ?
      the entire VM
      2. Do you want to exclude/allow users based on their IP or their username?
      both options are ok, what ever is simpler
      3. Do you want all this to be on command line only or do you need any UI for this?
      Both are ok.
