[NetBehaviour] bye bye internet-distraction, hello productivity... in linux

[James Morris]

i came across the leechblock plugin for firefox the other day but never
tried it out because i wasn't satisfied i couldn't get around it quite
easily. instead i decided i should limit my internet access to ten minutes
in every hour. i've written some a couple of scripts to achieve this. the
first is a script to setup IPtables[1] firewall rules which will drop
internet/tcp traffic (but not ssh/etc traffic ;-)), which is called via
crontab[2] and the second script installs these things so you don't have to
pfaff about.

[1] IPtables is a user space application program that allows a system
administrator to configure the tables provided by the Linux kernel firewall
[2] Cron is a time-based job scheduler in Unix-like computer operating
systems.
