Blocking particular website for specific thinclients on Ubuntu

We have server which is connected with more than 10 thin client machine. I have tried to block the websites ( facebook, orkut,twitter ) for all the users. it works fine for me. But , I want to block for particular user ( thinclient ) or by the way of IP address of machine. How can I do that.

You could use iptables for this. It can be configured to act as a filter for specific connections.

I hope this helps.

Yes. If i have understood you correctly you have a server, via which the thinclients access the rest of the net. Install iptables on this server and filter certain routed packets there.

I hope this helps.
