*No* ports are open. All they have is a (non-transparent) buggy HTTP
proxy. These guys really don't get the Internet, despite their sales
literature banging on endlessly about it.
If that's the only way you can access the network, you can take advantage
of the way HTTP proxies deal with HTTPS: they typically let it through
byte for byte.
"connect.c is the simple relaying command to make network connection via
SOCKS and https proxy. It is mainly intended to be used as proxy command
of OpenSSH."
Run sshd on port 443, use connect.c, and you're set.
(Except for some really smart SSL-aware HTTP proxies that verify that it's
an SSL connection of some kind. In theory, you could then sslwrap your
sshd and then be set.)
