:confused: Hi,
I have a question about a firewall with kazaa. On my work we use a firewall. What kind of program or utility do I have to get to prevent from logging in with KAZAA.
I also don't know what has to be changed in the options tab.
I do not know which ports are open or closed.
Please help me,
Mike
I dont fully understand the question, but if you're trying to connect to Kazaa from your workstation at work, which is behind a firewall and you're not the net admin then youve no chance!
Correct me if im wrong!

I am the boss of my school, some kids keeps trying to get to kazaa. It seems to work everytime. What does they know what i don't know what kind of options did they change then, the port/IP options? I thought that it wasn't possibl, but does anybody know what to do?
Mike
you have not said anything about the os,firewall that you use so i can not tell you what to do or what is done..

So you want to PREVENT people from logging in with Kazaa?Quote:

So are you asking to get PAST the firewall, or are you asking to help make the firewall BETTER?Quote:

I'm assuming you want to get past it, just on the basis of the tone of your post. I would research the possibility of using SOCKS and a proxy. But I'm not really in the mood to do a whole tutorial on common networking terms in order to help. The best answer? Don't do it from work, do it from home.

Interesting. Let's get this straight. Do you want to prevent the kids from logging in to Kazaa with your firewall OR do you want to know how to login to Kazaa from your firewalled network?Quote:

I want to prevent the kids from logging in on KAZAA, but we give , how do I put it, different shows/musicals with the kids and the music that I want to use is easy to find with KAZAA, so I would like to log in myself, but only I have permission.
That why my question for the settings for KAZAA, there has to be a way to log in on KAZAA with a firewall connected?
Thanks,
Mike
if ya the admin you know what to do ,i got this feelin that you are one of those kids who
wants to pass the school firewall and...........................

I'm sorry, do you know who you are talking to, I think i'm triple the age of you dear friend.
I hope you didn't mean that. Why can't someone ask a question and someone thinks he has the hole world.
There have been a rash of questions like this lately, which have involved circumventing firewalls to use programs such as Kazaa. People are allowed to be suspicious of queries like these. Attitude won't help get you an answer :DQuote:

Download the music at home..
Or switch off the firewall after closing hours to download the music.
Then switch on the firewall before the kids come back.
Logic seems simple doesn't it..
I'm just thinking... but since you're the boss, I'm sure you understand that when you download music from Internet for your school, you need to comply with the copyright laws.
EDIT: On a second tought, I think the easiest way to answer your question is to have one of those kids in your office, tell him that it's illegal to use Kazaa in school, and ask him how he did that... ;)
Peace always,

That was not my intention, but the guy was not so friendly.
If people think I'm not who I say I am, that can happen, you may believe what you want, but I thought that this was a decend forum for help, but no hard feelings, I look in another forum.
find a working socks5 proxy (can take some searching) and configure kazaa to connect through that. in very basic terms what you can do here is run kazaa through port 80 which is obviously not going to be blocked!
Not to be negative but you seem to be the kid with the trouble. Being honest has rewards of its own. Here is an option worth a try, get a yahoo account and do yahoo launch. You can configure your station to play what u like so no real loss. pluss you will prolly find some artists u forgot about I know i did , ;) lol the boss of your school hehe good one :DQuote:

erm lets see if i was to block kazza i have to trace it what port it uses to connect to kazza or block ip if u even have that stuff it works for me
how about this. Get rid of the problem by dumping Kazaa and getting winmx
Yellowwebber,
1) The reason Kazaa can get through the firewall (I'm sure the admin blocked port 1214 and was astonished when kazaa still worked) is because kazaa writes a registry key with peer information just incase a smarty man firewall admin blocks port 1214. If you can find this key and you can prevent users from installing software, your problem will be minimized. I say minimized because there is a neat little proggie that allows you to proxy kazaa out to the internet on popular open ports. I will not provide the how-to on this because you should be able to get this information easily from a google search.
2) Most people here are professionals in the security industry. A read of the site FAQ page may serve you well when you post your next question/response.

now please correct me if im wrong anyone but from my understanding when using kazaa it uses port....1023 i think not sure, by default, why couldnt he just block incoming/outgoing traffick on that port? i know that it can be done.or...why couldnt he use a program like a appstraka program to monitor network traffic and when kazaa is opend appstraka sees it and does notallow use or ask for a password. im not a network admin im only in my first year of collage and im drunk getting ready for the superbowl but it sounds like this is a prob that could easily be solved by denying acsess in some way shape or form on kazaa. i mean iif he has a root account then why the hell not? like i said i stnad corrected if someone contradicts me but if not then id say just deny acsess on the port of put some monitoring software on all comps and deny acsess without a password sense your wanting to use it in your office.BUT... please read my post i made earlier today about file swapping. there starting to srike back. so make sure you behind a proxy. take it easy. and make sure to root for the buc's.

well hell thehorse13 im sorry i was writing my post when you made yours. i stand corrected. you did your homework and i didnt thank you for clarifying the topic at hand.
kazaa uses port 1214 as server. And, like the original post says......it automatically goes out through a firewall allowing downloads. You have to block access 'inbound' from *.*.*.* port 1214. Of course anyone can view any kazaa(s) servers by scanning an IP range for port 1214, then using that ip address in a browser and adding :1214. (eg: 192.168.1.100:1214)
i have had a load of people with this problem at the kazaa lite forum.
basically any http tunneling software can be used but is a little unstable and when i mean a little i really mean alot.
you could try port 80 but kazaa still likes to use port 1214 to connect and will always try to connect using this port. there are a few fixes for this at www.k-lite.tk
i used nmap at my uni and found open ports and this worked for me but not for other people.
but since you are the admin you should know all this info right. ;)
i have also heard people say that their uni's are blocking incoming traffic that originated from port 1214. is this possible?

bullcrap its spelled "whole" you newbie
And if you want permission you have to set the filtering so only your machine can connect though the firewall, and drop the rest.
but your still stealing. and i doubt any person 3x my age, would be anti-riaa (cos u work for what u want, and remeber the day u used to be able to leave ur door open, w/o people STEALING)
why dont leave it to the computing dept, because i stronly disbelive some 2 bit music teacher would really give a **** about pupils accessing kazza, put on on the budget for some material, you get paid enough of my tax dollars.
Preep
i think that u should trey 2 disable the firewall .. or just remove it from the computer u r working it , or remove it from the regedit\HKEY_LOCAL_MAchine\software\microsoft\windows\CurrentVersion\Run
and del the firewall from it ....
