Remote Access

ziegler · 03-06-2003, 09:50 AM

I am trying to access a RH 8.x system from behind a proxy that only allows port 80 and 443 through at work, but my ISP blocks port 80. So, my only choice it to connect at 443. If I am correct VNC does not support proxy's so that will not work. Any ideas? My preferred method would be through IE 5.x and a web like server running on RH. Has any one used Reflection for the WEB, would that work?

At home I have a router that can switch ports, so I can map port 443 to any port on RH.

Thanks to all.

Bind SSH to port 443. Then you can specify in ssh to connect to port 443:

ssh user@domain:443

X Windows access not ssh/telnet.

Thanks.

???? You titled your thread "Remote Access". I don't understand what your after now. Isn't ssh'ing into a machine remote access?

Thanks.

ssh tunnels X with very little configuration. You can search this
forum for how to do it.

But is there an ssh client that supports MS Proxy Server (user-id, password).

Thanks.

Putty will let you get through a proxy. Make sure you grab something post-0.53b since in 0.53b, proxy support is broken.
