Bypassing school blocks with a separate os?

Ok, so a teacher at my school pretty much said that there is no way for us to get by our school blocker and even if you do get by the blocker, they monitor you at all times, so you get an instant ISS, well I kind of took this as a challenge. So me and my friend grabbed a copy of knoppix, and it loads fine, but because we don't need to log in we are anonymous. but what i was wandering is are we even visible to the IT guys? and would the school blocker still work?

Any information will be greatly appreciated.:)

i wouldnt think that the administrators would notice that your on there if your on a completely different operating system… because of the fact that the software isnt installed on the operating system your using… but then again i could be wrong if your looking at it from the networking perspective. Considering all of the computers are connected directly to the same network…it could possibly just give them a red flag saying something differnet and unknown is happening on the system…

— for the flashdrive question … maybe this will help?

i dought that its that hard to get by i dont even think youl need knoppix and i also dought there watching you all the time and even if they do see you, inless your doing someting rly bad they wont care thelle pretend that they never saw it. they said the exact same thing as my school they basicly bloked avrything bsides google , and microsoft office.. i eather pinged( intell the figured out and bloked cmd) or i used https://… instead.

Things to try: use https on sites which support it try to set internet explorer to use a proxy use a web based proxy (peacefire.org's mailing list) use a bootable os(knoppix works) setup your own webbased proxy (have fun…)

AT my school they have some saint brenard crap firewall and we run mac os 10 or something like that and they know kids get passed it but at mine the web-based proxies seem to work the best or if you can make your own on your own computer and put a password on it so only you can use it is also a good idea cas one of my friends did that but he bought his own domain or something like that.

lol my school has 4 administrators who are brainsmart but miss the little things.

– they blocked cmd, so we couldnt run it… but all you had to do was type command.com lol… real hard to get around that, then i typed shutdown.exe -i to load a menu then browsed…and there was every single computer and server in our district, not just my school lol. major security hole there eh? then a dumbass who saw me shutdown my friends computer decided to shutdown his entire class….so they blocked the start/run prompt lol… but all we did was search for command.com and it worked again, ahh i love highschool

yes you can boot knopix off of a thumbdrive if the computer suppports it and if you have smart it guys the first time they notice that you are using a different os they will block all the internet privliges for every computer untill they find who ever is using it. sometimes. they might notice something different is going on on there systems. but all in all you will still have fillters on the interenet. but you can use a proxy wwhille in the os and the teachers wont notice.

what OS are they using now? windows i'm guessing. i don't think you need to be using another OS to make yourself untrackable. if you have your own login details and thats how they track you just get someone elses details. or you could use the CMD to create another account and give it admin privilages. if the cmd is blocked bring up notepad and type cmd. save it as 1.bat then run it. that might work.

i really don't know alot about networking. i just saying what i think would work.

Wow, this thread is from 2006. I suspect the original posters have either found a solution to their problem, or given up.

Many of the admins of this forum dislike when people necro old threads without a good reason. Just FYI.
