I've been playing around with trying to block Facebook posting but allow all other access to Facebook. I setup a deny rule for the 'facebook-posting' app and then setup a rule below it allowing 'facebook' but, this doesn't seem to stop posting. The logs don't show any traffic for 'facebook-posting' so wondered whether this will only work with SSL Decryption configured or if I've setup the rules incorrectly?

Yes, this needs SSL decryption. Without SSL decryption your choices are to completely allow/deny all Facebook functions. With decryption enabled, you can choose a separate action for each Facebook function.

Thanks Jared, I thought that might have been the case.

Hi,
I tested this in my lab. With ssl-decryption on and facebook-posting blocked, I can't comment on any post but i am still able to put status on my wall.
I check firewall is not detecting facebook-posting app when i post on my wall.
Kindly advise.
