Remove dns in /etc/resolv and add the sites manually in /etc/hosts?  You can still access the sites by ip but dns for things like www.google.com won't work.

The sites added must be static ips or that won't work in which case a caching DNS and some restrictions can be done but more of a headache.

Is there a way to allow a machine on the network to only access a small list of websites?

I have a fedora 17 machine that is hooked to a tv that I only want to access a couple of sites for movies. This is accessible to everyone and is only to be used as stated.

I need the network up.

A Cisco router is between the machine and the net that I do not want to reset. (Unauthorized to do so).

Any help on this would be appreciated.
