how to bypass peer to peer block

Post by n3m3sis »

Aoa


In my university they have blocked all ports related to Peer to peer applications even in the hostel they are blocked.

Is there any method how to overcome such a block?

Which p2p network.
With Edonkey, the most popular, you can change the ports it uses to communicate over TCP and UDP in the client. This way, you bypass the default port blockade enforced by the ISP.
Probably other clients as well.

From this webpage, KaZaa does not use a specific port, hence it cannot be stopped, so is it really the ports being block by your ISP/Univ here?

http://www.pcquest.com/content/topstori ... 111007.asp

`The earlier versions of Kazaa could be easily blocked by blocking a specific port on the firewall (refer to Block Kazaa, Morpheus, LimeWire, page 40, September 2002, PCQuest). However, the latest versions of Kazaa (versions 2 and above) do not use a specific port to connect or download. They hop ports to connect. Worse, they can even use port 80 (the port used for Web browsing). Hence, blocking a port is no longer a way of blocking the latest versions of Kazaa. Something more needs to be done. On this month’s PCQEssential CD, we have carried software called ftwall, which when coupled with iptables firewall on Linux can block Kazaa effectively.´

Download "proxifier" software from url www.proxifier.com/ .It will need a port open,then it creates a tunnel.
