<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>I was wondering how you would access scholarly journals out of the comfort of your own home without having direct internet connection to the UCLA server.</p>
<p>Don't you need a BOL account or something and then log in through a certain site to confirm that indeed you're a full-time student? If someone could get back to me on this I'd much appreciate it.</p>
<p>you can set-up a proxy server... the 'how-to' directions should be on the bol website somewhere...</p>
<p>Proxy</a> server directions.</p>
<p>found it: <a href="http://www.bol.ucla.edu/services/proxy/%5B/url%5D">http://www.bol.ucla.edu/services/proxy/</a></p>
<p>aw... UCLAri beat me... <em>curses the you-have-to-wait-60-seconds-btwn-each-post rule</em></p>
<p>Hahah,</p>
<p>The 60 second rule is like a cooldown in World of Warcraft.</p>
<p>Thanks for the quick response. I had no problems getting the proxy network to work, but I have a question. Once I'm connected to the proxy server, will UCLA start monitoring everything I do? Like will they know what I download and such? I only ask because last year I was caught downloading a recent blockbuster hit. Wouldn't want to get in trouble again.</p>
<p>ipandoy,</p>
<p>Doubtful. I don't even think it allows UCLA entrance into your system to see what kinds of packets are being transmitted.</p>
<p>If you're worried, just close the browser and the proxy connection goes bye bye.</p>
