Local web cache for restricted users question
I am in charge of a project to teach 20 or so inmates basic computer skills. These people cannot have outside access to the web, but I need to show them how to do a basic Google search and search for articles on Wikipedia. (also needs to be Arabic and English)

I was thinking of using a squid proxy to cache all the sites on the server and then let them go to the predesignated sites and perform the predesignated searches. This method would probably be fine for me but the people teaching the class would have issues updating the cache with new content. (also I can't get squid to retain it's cache for over 1yr)

My question is, is there an easier method of doing this preferably with a web GUI to update the cache. Is their some easier method I could be using?

GOOGLE-SITEMAPGEN(1)					      General Commands Manual					      GOOGLE-SITEMAPGEN(1)

NAME

       google-sitemapgen -- simple script to automate production of sitemaps for a webserver

SYNOPSIS

       google-sitemapgen [--testing]  [--help]	[--config=config.xml]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the google-sitemapgen command.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       google-sitemapgen  is  a  program that automatically produces sitemaps for a webserver, in the Google Sitemap Protocol (GSP). Sitemap files
       are XML listings of content you make available on your web server. The files can be directly submitted to search engines as hints  for  the
       search  engine  web  crawlers as they index your web site. This can result in better coverage of your web content in search engine indices,
       and less of your bandwidth spent doing it.

OPTIONS

       --config=config.xml
		 Specify the location of the configuration config.xml

       --testing Used to test the sitemap generator configuration.

       --help	 Display a summary of options and exit.
