Question about accessing my services from corporate Network (feddit.org)

submitted 6 months ago by Feddinat0r@feddit.org to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Well, hello there.

I run several services on my NAS at home.

I have a domain which always points at home and redirects port 80 to wikipedia.

Almost all ports are not forwarded, only for those which i want to have access to.

Example:

Paperless
Syncthing
FreshRSS

Now i work on my corporate computer and i cant access my services.

Why?

It blocks connections which go to a specific port.

Now i would love to access freshrss on adress:

Www.domainexample.com:1234

Which gets blocked.

Any ideas?

Messing with the local pc is of course forbidden.

I would advise to not do personal stuff on your work computer.

Definitely this...never ever do anything personal from company issued devices. I barely even let my work laptop access my WiFi when WFH.

Yes, even if you are using it you are not the owner and do not control it; any corporate laptop is an untrusted device at home.

I know a guy whose former employer used the fact that he plugged a USB into his work machine to threaten to sue him unless he gave up severance when they layer him off.

Don’t use your work machine for anything other than work, ever. Assume it logs everything, assume it will all be used against you as needed.

Assume if you write it on that machine they’ll try and claim it as their IP.

1000x this.

This seems like a great way to be fired for a misunderstanding. It's not worth it.
