I do not understand this thread. It is obvious that TAU does not want 
you to circumvent
it's access protection. Even if this was possible, why would you do it 
?  If you're pissed
that it doesn't work well with Linux, and you are a TAU student/staff 
member, contact
the TAU helpdesk, and open a ticket on the subject, and request they 
find a suitable
solution for you.

That said, as TAUs CISO I am *telling* you that we are interested to see 
our staff
and students access our protected data in the proper way, and that any 
other person
is kept out.

Until we enforced this, many students sites not affiliated with TAU have
published direct mms:// links to our content, which became available to 
anyone, anywhere,
regardless of being affiliated with TAU or not, and thus infringing on 
our copyrights, on
our academic staff copyrights, and also on Film studios copyright for 
some of our material.

  If a staff member or student has a problem, we can find solutions via 
our internal means of
doing so, and not via asking Linux-IL how to circumvent us.
