Guess what happened today (03-15-2001), the N2H2 company, makers of the
Bess filtering proxy software used in schools finally caught up with
Everything2. For as long as i can remember everything.blockstackers.com has been blocked, now they appear to have realized that it doesn't exist anymore.
Why did they
block us? We talk about
sex,
drugs, and
how to bypass bess.
We sell
t-shirts which talk about drugs. We swear. We vote. We don't
censor content.
We are also smart. We are the
geeks and the
scholars of the world. I write this today from my machine at school. http://127.0.0.1:81/index.pl?node_id=
365128.
SSH is how i do it, and how you too can do it. SSHd comes standard with a not-as-well-as-it-should-be known feature called port forwarding.
How it works:
- Setup a port forward from port 81 local, to www.everything2.com, port 80.
- Login, authenticate, get a shell.
- Now in netscape or IE, configure it to not use the proxy for addresses starting with.... 127.0.0.1
- connect to http://127.0.0.1:81/
If it doesn't work quite right, click the E2 logo, and it should.
In SecureCRT, go into the advanced options next to the hostname, and click on port forwarding, hit new, enter the data, hit save, (re)
connect.
Node type: idea.

Bess Can't Go There.
Remind you of a simpsons episode?
The Simpsons are one big political cartoon. Alot of people don't know that.
