Anyone know how to vpn or proxy tunnel past a firewall?

if you take to pieces
of black construction paper
tape them together
insert them in a fax machine
then tape again to form a loop
and send it
it won't send a header,
because its black on black
and it will continue sending
until all the toner or paper
is use on the recieving end
and if its thermal it can literally
burn up, given time, so one would
send one after hours and let it run
all night, (not that I would know)

Hahahaha.. Nice..

But I don't know where I can find a fax for the life of me..

Need to find something I can do with admin privileges of a router...

i'm still learning
to use the mouse
in video games
and when it comes
to firewalls,
i rely on my
+3 asbestos
cloak of insanity

Great read!

I have three fax machines at work. Unfortunately, they're all broken, but it would be kinda funny to set all three of them in some kind of loop to each other (don't think they have the ability to send and receive on separate lines though, so probably wouldn't work anyways).

I finally was able to find a number to tech support that actually works, so maybe I'll have my games running here in a little bit.

Edit: And I finally got through to tech support, who also is responsible for the in-room phone that she can barely hear me on, and she says, "games are not allowed on the network because they eat up bandwidth". I said, "YouTube isn't blocked, and that eats up way more bandwidth than my games," to which she said video-streaming sites aren't allowed on the network either.

I'm pretty sure I can eat up way more bandwidth surfing Fox News or similar than I do playing Everquest 2 (it often runs at < 1 kbps). World of Warcraft seems to be a bit more network intensive, but it should still run on dial-up speeds, and my connection here is running like 500 kbps down and 1.5 mbps up.

damn, i had work around
links and patches for all
that crap, and forgot to
burn some of the bookmarks
in the last round of OS roulette
I'll try to find them in the note pile
