port forward localhost:8080 (or some other arbitrary port) to remote:80
via ssh.. for instance, in putty's somewhat wretched connection
configuration dialog, go to connection->ssh->tunnels, leave 'local ports
accept connections from other hosts' and 'remote ports do same'
unchecked, enter the source port 8080, the destination localhost:80,
check 'local' and 'auto' under destination, and click 'Add', then save
this along with the rest of the session settings (host, user, tec) to a
named session. make this connection, and point your local Windows
web browser to http://localhost:8080/legersmb.....
note, this will NOT work for SSL sessions (https://...)
another approach is NX, but I don't know much about this. iit works
more like the X-forwarding thing but uses a more efficient protocol than
plain X.
