RE: [mnbrewers] RE: the boiler

I just played around a little with how my workplace does web filtering. It is done strictly by name. For example, if I try to go to www.northernbrewer.com <http://www.northernbrewer.com/> the request is denied. If I ping that address and learn that the IP is 208.42.68.77 and enter the IP into a web browser, I get right to their page and am able to browse around. If I try to go to www.mnbrewers.com <http://www.mnbrewers.com/> the request is denied. If I ping that address and learn that the IP is 65.199.118.138 and enter the IP into a web browser I end up getting page not found. I am not a web expert, but there must be something simple that can be changed by whoever hosts mnbrewers.com that would allow it to be accessed by IP number. Now that may not help at Jim's workplace, as not all web filtering is created equal. I have just found that it works with the way my work filters web requests.

(Just kidding....) My work filters mnbrewers.com from browsing while at work also. Do you have internet access at home? Can you download it from there? It might be worth a talk with whoever manages the firewall at your work too, and see why they filter MNBREWERS.COM . I'd rather not have duplicate content on the two sites. Also, the YAHOO site has come to be a repository of mostly technical information on brewing, mostly for the BJCP class. I will send you a copy of the BOILER via email. - Al Original Message: ----------------- From: j.voosen(a)comcast.net Date: Thu, 01 Sep 2005 14:47:23 +0000 To: mba(a)thebarn.com, mnbrewers(a)yahoogroups.com Subject: the boiler Dumb question for any of us who have to deal with firewalls: Is it possible to put the Boiler out on the Yahoo web site under Files? Our filewall has no issue with Yahoo but does not like mnbrewers.com. Thanks!
