Stupid Yorii, i should have read what you wrote...i asked her to post for me. So i guess i have to do it myself. I need a program for a remote access to my PC to tunnel through into my pc from a pc inside a network with websense, any recomendations? Thank you for your posts ^^;
For the most part i would have to say that is exactly correct. I have to bypass Websense in order to play ffxi...but i still need to be able to use the programs on my work computer...so lets say...for example i have ffxi on the workcomp. I want to access ffxi from my workcomp but tunnel into my home comp for the unwebsensed internet...make sense?
I can make bits and pieces of sense from that, so I'll tell you what I know:
1. Websense only blocks web content from what I understand. Web content is viewed through a web browser. FFXI / POL are not web browsers, therefore you shouldn't have to do anything to have them bypass the Websense-restricted content.
2. FFXI / POL will encounter problems at the firewall level. If you have a competent technical services team, they've probably locked down all non-standard ports - including POL's port range. Unless they've enabled port triggering (which is possible depending on the type of company you're in and what kind of proprietary apps your employees use), you're completely screwed. You'd have to go down on / provide mass amounts of alcohol to someone who has access to alter the firewall rules.
3. Tunnelling to a home computer to play FFXI on is a very, very bad idea. Though your framerate at home is playable, encrypting each frame in a VPN / terminal packet and tossing that across the WAN will result in probably <3fps at your desk computer, if that. Not to mention that I think most remote-control apps disallow full-motion video, which includes games (this means it'll show a blank window instead of the video or game you're trying to watch).
What I'd try to do is get an extra system or a laptop from home that you can throw FFXI on. Most companies have a "dirty" line, which is a public Internet connection similar to the one you have at home. These dirty lines typically have no firewall and no proxy to go through, so you can watch whatever you want through it (pr0n, torrents, FFXI, etc). Ask an IT guy to enable a dirty line in your office (for your visiting clients, of course).

Not to mention, as said before, if you have a competent IT team, they will not only know you installed something, but will definately know you're using a proxy server. Trust me on this one. In fact, if they're at all competent, you won't even be able to use a proxy server.
Um the software is called Windows. But the software is not the problem.
Its your brain.
Use it with Windows XP to accomplish your goals.

Sounds like one of their commercials.
Well....
He's asking to do something that his employer don't want him to do.
Short of getting fired whats the point in doing that? Being a system admin and having to cover the ass of many a friend, I really don't see the point in doing this.
Is it worth your job?

FFXI + Work = You - Work
Not always. I had a roommate who would take a very weak laptop to work. While there he would remotely access his gaming desktop at the dorm and play America's Army through it. His laptop just displayed the pictures/sound while his home pc provided power intensive rendering. Was a pretty nice setup, but requires you to have a fast net connection to the pc you want to use. Always freaked me out to see his desktop start playing America's Army with no one there. :lol: He also did the same thing to watch tv at work by accessing the tv tuner card with cable connection on his desktop in the dorm.

Sounds pretty cool, never actually seen it done, however the fact still remains that any techincally competent IT team should be able to see this connection, especially its its tunneling through their VPN. The IT guys at my job can friggin log in to the little HP jetprint servers we have, and know just about every connection that takes place.
Not to mention our hubs and switches are set up so that if you plug a laptop into them, you won't be able to connect to anything. Same goes for trying to set up a wireless network in the store. Our company is pretty protective about what gets plugged into their network.
