Post WaGuns blocked from work? Solutions inside.
Some companies firewalls and IT people think that you shouldn't be surfing firearm related websites while at work. Well, to me, that is just plain unacceptable.

Here are two solutions that may work for you.

1) http://www.designbyothers.com
2) http://vps.rmcgirr83.org/~waguns/

The VPS site will make you log in frequently, so be prepared for that nuisance. Other than that, let me know if you have any issues, or if your WaGuns access is now complete!

Me - "Steve, I'm freaking out!!! The firewall wont let me get to WGO since the server swap"

Heads up for Boeing guys, the http://vps.rmcgirr83.org/~waguns/ link works for visiting WGO (on your approved breaks and lunch time of course) thumbsup

The Company I retired from tried that crap too. Just about everything outside the company was blocked by the firewall.

For some dumb reason they didn't block AOL though. I just kept an AOL account, logged in through the network, and went anywhere I pleased. Even turned the monthly AOL subscription in on my Expense Report. Told my "boss" it was for the research I had to do. :bigsmile:

I remember King County used a firewall that blocked everything, but I found a way around it! It was called "Bernard Security" and the logo was a Saint Bernard dog, so I "Fooled the Guard dog"!

My last IT position gave me access to all of the data closets. I took and routed my room jack through the 4th floor executive closet - problem solved.

Current position... I can surf ANY gun site without issue
