|
 |
Hi guys,
I wanna track some selected information like changes, status, communication etc. that I want to enter electronically, so I can use the search function later and I also wanna have automatic date tracking.
A simple WordPress blog running on a local XAMMP is perfectly sufficient for this task under normal circumstances.
But... the firewall tool blocks outgoing connections that are common, web, mail, MySQL nothing works, not even when only listening on local host.
It's also a customer provided laptop so I can't change the situation and we don't have admin accounts (no installing software, only portable apps).
My current workaround is... don't laugh... just using a word document as one huge protocol.
However I was wondering whether might be another solution.
I am aware my request is super strange and restrictive, ... any ideas?

"The hyperbole, the demonization of the other opinion and the unwillingness to even read the opposing opinion destroys the so important political discussions necessary for the well functioning of society.", Couleur

Well if you have office then why don't you use excel instead and write a basic script that would add the current date/time to your new row. You could also have status in there and other neato things.

@ AmpegV4, Nalo
Sounds like the insane firewall would just block those attempts

He could setup his xampp with any local port too, so that doesn't seem to be an option, no?
