Are you in China now? I'm hearing (like, today) that is specifically being blocked. Here is a link discussing it: http://advocacy.globalvoicesonline.org/2011/03

- rdl 16y agoOh, wow. I was last in China in Q4 2010, when it was possible to use a commercial PPTP VPN provider with no problems. I've only had to resort to DNS tunneling of SSH in other countries. I think some people are working on pluggable circumvention-of-firewall technologies for Tor and other protocols now, but the increased latency is a huge pain. A paid one-hop solution is really about the most I'm willing to tolerate; if I want immunity from a server operator's monitoring, a tor network inside a single colo facility with lots of gig-e crossconnections between servers or cages run by different groups would be about all I'd tolerate.
