how to bypass firewall

P

Parth

Hello everyone,
I need some help regrading byassing firewalls.My college has internet
aces but it prevents us from dowloading music(*.mp3,*.mid,etc.)from the
net.I use a win xp sp2 and browse using ie 6. Is there any way how i
can dowload music on my computer using this connection. (We have a
proxy server throught which all the connections pass)

Thanks,
Parth Shah

You'll need to go to comp.lang.perl for help with that problem.

Hello everyone,
I need help getting my college degree. I downloaded a hack to bypass
the college internet firewall and the college system admins found out
and I got expelled.

You need to use a solution *outside* the firewall.

Shell access on a virtual server is cheap - check if port 22 is
blocked. SSH dynamic port forwarding will get you unlimtied access via
a socks 4 proxy.

Alternatively you need an external proxy that renames files. If you're
prepared to do some *work* - you could start with approx -

As it's a CGI it can be used with quite a cheap hosting account....

All the best,

Then Don't - The firewall, being lame as those things are, probably looks
for *and logs* specific URL's and plain-text file names. So the first step
is to not use things that it recognises.

So *you* must have a proxy server *outside* the firewall to do the
downloading, then fetch through the firewall using some protocol that hides
the content - The combine of SSL and HTTP probably *will* go through
cleanly.

Since this is supposedly relevant to Python, how about the proxy being
Shareaza "remoted" with Pythons XML-RPC over SSH using Wx-Python as a GUI?

Maybe even support streaming so all the "warez" reside on the proxy, yet the
music plays where you are; it's probably the safest way. "Don't shit where
you eat" - "They" come and kick the door in - but not at your place.

*That* would be a neat project.

PS:

Once you got your proxy setup, you do not really need to go through the
firewall at all. A DVD/RW goes straight through with lots of bandwith ;-)
