How many accounts?  Immediate thought is to employee service as some type of
managed vpn, accessing internet only via tunnelling first into your network,
using your gateway.  Control access from your network.  Seems more likely to
be easy to manage.

Dear all,

A strange request was put to me....

A company is setting up a number of dial up accounts via an 
isp for their
employees able to work at home.  Now since they are dialing 
in via an isp
and not directly in to the main office, the company would 
like to monitor
the employees activity to ensure they are not doing anything 
unsavoury(porn,
hacking, abusing company privelidges).

Does anyone know of any 3rd party tools which can send alerts 
to a central
location for users on a dial up account.  The dynamic ip 
allocation would be
a problem but is there anything which can cope with this type 
of request??
