Is there anyway around this blasted website blocker. It has seemed to block most proxy sites already like proxify.org or ebypass.org etc. I want to be able to read email while at school. :o

You're supposed to get an education at school and not read e-mails. WHy not just use a service that allows telneting ?sdf.lonestar.org or cyberspace.org does :)Quote:

http://proxy2005.tk is a site that can bypass websense and display most pages. It cannot let you check mail. For that type of bypass you should read up on the tutorails at http://trilogy-group.tk . Enjoy
SLeepy Time :rolleyes:
You think they are going to allow me to telnet before they let me read email at comcast.net? You're off your rocker. :o

As an administrator that uses Websense, if it's set up correctly - you're out of luck. If you do find an anonymous proxy site that works, it will still show up in the logs. At that point your admin will block that site and pay you a visit. Look at your AUP and see if it's worth a visit from your admin.
Websense is a PAIN IN THE ASS.
The damn thing always gets me into trouble... well, I get into the trouble, it catches me.... :D
The only way I can get around it is to do one of a couple things.
Setup a terminal services/ vnc on remote box on a nonstandard port (eg. one that can get out the firewall) (tunneled for increased security)
Connect to remote shell (ssh) and use text based browsers. (again, might have to use nonstandard ports depending on firewall configuration) not all sites are text based browser friendly... trust me on this. You'll get a headache trying to read half the stuff out there... but there are NO FLASH OR BANNER ADS! :) lol
Other than that... google cache!
Websense is good. If you can't beat the system... step around it.
The "solutions" I mentioned may violate your AUP... if you screw up and the revoke your network access don't come crying to us.

I'm surprised that you can still set up a telnet session. I am using Websense with a PIX integration. Being a stateful packet inspector, I'm surprised that telnet sessions are allowed.
The only trouble I get into is when the VP's start bitching that they can't download patches for their palms or the latest search bar LOL
Nah, I wouldn't use telnet. I use ssh or tunnel vnc over ssh.
I'll use terminal services (RDP) when I can't use ssh.
But, then again, I'm the admin.... ;)
Yea, it's good to be king - On the local settings for the network agent, I added my static ip address(s) to the monitor list exception.
I am invisible to Websense and all it's logging/monitoring
Well Im a student so I doubt they could catch me. VNC was mentioned and I have it setup but they block the default ports such as 5800. Anyway I could VNC or is there a port WebSense wouldnt block?
That's a rather bold statement. What makes you think this?Quote:

The longest Id be in there breaking the rules is 5 minutes. The 2 librarians are both stupid. There is like one tech, and I dont think he is even on school property, but instead at some network and gets the occasional call to come to the school to fix something. Even if they caught me, boo hoo, they wont do anything. :rolleyes:Quote:
One of my buddy's is working on a program to bypass our website blocker. It connects to a server on the other side of bess (our blocker) and the program tells the server to get a page, put it into a file and transfer it to the computer. He's still working out the bugs but maybe I can talk him into putting the source code up on the net somewhere.
