Title: Re: Firewall workaround
I don't know much about ssh forwarding, but I don't think it would be very useful in my case.
As far as I know you have to specify the server ip for a port to forward.
I want to be able to connect to any server on any port.
 
Please correct me if I'am wrong.
 
Thanks!

Betreff: Re: Firewall workaround

most of the IM's today will try first it traditional ports, then 80,
then 443, then 23 , then 25.
Not using some tunneling of forwarding mechanism like ssh, just a single
connection trough this port.

I know ssh could forward ports, but in this case, you need the other end
where to forward the port :)
