RE: Head's Up Your Network Admins...

So a colleague of mine has pointed out to me since I posted this.
Still, others have pointed out that the current firewalls, if configured
properly, would prevent this technique.

Another thought.  Even Dynamic IP address doesn't change unless you
disconnect and not reconnect before the lease time on the ip address
expires.  So you should be able to use the same IP address to connect to
until that happens.

Even the broadband connections that you can get for $40 or $50/month
don't include a static IP - to get that you normally have to go
"business class".  This method just wouldn't work if you had a dynamic
IP address on the home machine.
