UNBLOCK SITES IN SCHOOL!

I am going to show you guys how to unblock the sites in school if they are blocked by the admin. I will do that in 6 easy steps.

Step 1: Login in with your admin account (To know how to get admin read this thread http://www.supportforums.net/showthread.php?tid=17664
Step 2: Go in Applications, Accessories and Terminal.
Step 3: Write sudo -i
Then it will ask you for your password.
Step 4: Write: nano /etc/resolv.conf
Then delete all the text.
Step 5: Write: nameserver 8.8.8.8 Then press enter and under it write: nameserver 8.8.4.4
Step 6: Press Ctrl+X And then press Enter
Then you can close the Terminal and the sites which were blocked now they will be unblocked.

Post in the thread if this helped you.

The closest my school has come to Linux is as much other's have. Mac.
I tried talking the head of my tech-department when I was in school into setting up a few computers with it to try it out, but "No, we need to keep XP on the PC's" =/

I use a method like this on the Mac's, but I created my own VPN from my Linux machine at home, enabled the Mac root account, and connected to the VPN lol.

Single User mode is Mac's flaw lol
