Changing IP using old MacOS on a Sun network...

(1/2) > >>

Calum:
I am on a SunOS network here at work, whose main terminal machines are windows NT/2000, however i am connected to this network via a mac running OS9.1.

I know my IP address, but i want to change it. How can i? is there a way? or will i need to contact the administrator?

You wanna get back on Windows BBS? Then simply delete the cookie and create a new account. It is a vBulletin after all.

ip, not cookie, the cookies get deleted every time i close the browser (opera or mozilla) they have banned my IP address. i haven't a clue how vBulletin works, are you saying they can't block my IP? i sincerely doubt that that's the case...

Calum, if you are on a private network (i.e. your IP address starts with 10.*.*.*, 192.168.*.*, or 172.16.*.*) then you are probably out of luck.  It would mean you are on a private network and your IP address would be translated to a public internet address at your firewall located at the edge of your private network and the internet.  The public address is the one that the BBS would have banned, and no matter what private address you change to the firewall will still use the same public address (most likely).

Calum:
my IP looks like a 192.***and-so-on address from the outside, and is unchanging. Does this mean that the entire network is blocked from viewing the WindowsBBS since they have banned my IP address?
