   How To VPN Question   
   30 Aug 06 01:52:06   
   
   From: substitute1stInitial2ndInitialLastName51@hotmaill.com   
      
   The company I work for allows me to connect to our network via Cisco VPN.   
   Currently, the client configuration is a split tunnel allowing me a secured   
   connection back to the office but still allowing me to use my own internet   
   provider for general browsing, email, etc.  The problem I am faced with is   
   that in a few weeks, the client software will change and will no longer   
   offer the split tunnel.  With the split tunnel gone when I am connected to   
   the company I can only communicate with assets on the corporate LAN.  I have   
   been told that there is something that can be done to configure the browser   
   to work off the company's internet feed but they have a content filter in   
   place that block chat sites, news groups, forums, web mail and other sites   
   that may or may not be risky.   
      
   What I would like to know is whether it is somehow possible to beat the   
   system and still have a non-censored connection to the internet?  The   
   problem is that I run a small side business and I need to have access to my   
   web mail account and the new configuration is going to block me from getting   
   to my web mail account.  I have a second NIC card available if I needed it   
   but I'm a bit confused as to how I could set the browser up to only use a   
   specific IP.   
      
   Any help would be appreciated
