Thanks for the info! Between you and Dave i may figure something out yet! But i think tunneling to my home network is not a way to make it happen. My download speed at home is never much better than 1 Mbit and usually a lot lower. Upload is never over about 150 Kbit. (i just checked: 880 up, 115 down.) See, the part of town i live in is not treated very well by anyone. AT&T oversubscribes our lines and well, more detail isn't helpful.
Unlike you, the IT guy at work isn't any more helpful than he has to be, either, but the people at school are. If tunneling somewhere is a solution, maybe i can get them to help me connect to something at school. - AK --------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you want to connect through your corporate network, you should talk to the network administrator about it, they know how to do it. There are SL versions supporting SOCKS5. About installing Second Life on corporate PCs, talk to the system administrator about it in before, they want to know and there might be policies not allowing those. Myself being administrator, I would prefer if the users would use tunneling to their home network, preferably SSH or http-tunnel over SSL. Traffic would originate from the home network of the user then, not from the corporation. The most preferable solution to that issue though would be, if you bring your own notebook using a 3G UMTS/HDSPA or other wireless-modem to connect to the internet. That way the corporate network would be isolated and unaffected by your experiments. There is a reason the corporate network is proxified instead of just NAT routed.
