How do I block a website on my mac?
I've looked on here for an answer, I've tried using the terminal but it didn't block the website. I tried going through my parental controls and that also didn't do it? I'm trying to block Facebook if that helps? I'm no genius on this, but I'm running Mac OS X version 10.6.6.
Please help, I'd like to get this finished before school lets out.
log on to your router and block it from there.
Im a PC, not a MAC but i know networks, and you can block sites from the router the source.
or
you can edit the MAC's host file by putting in this entry: 127.0.0.1 www.facebook.com
This will point anything facebook to the local system therefore rendering the site unaccessable.
Steps below.
Editing the hosts file
Editing the hosts file in Mac OS X – Leopard, is a pretty easy task, especially if you are familiar with the terminal.
Step 1 – Open the Terminal.app
Either by start typing Terminal on the Spotlight, or by going into Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal.
Step 2 – Open the hosts file
Open the hosts by typing on the Terminal that you have just opened:
view sourceprint?1 $ sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
Type your user password when prompted.
Step 3 – Edit the hosts file
The hosts file contains some comments (lines starting with the # symbol), as well as some default hostname mappings (e.g. 127.0.0.1 – localhost).
Simply append your new mappings underneath the default ones. Or edit one of the default values if you know what you are doing!
You can navigate the file using the arrow keys.
Step 4 – Save the hosts file
When done editing the hosts file, press control-o to save the file.
Press enter on the filename prompt, and control-x to exit the editor.
Step 5 – Flush the DNS cache
On Leopard you can issue a simple Terminal command to flush the DNS cache, and have your host file changes to take immediate effect:
You can now test your new mapping on the browser!
