Need help with an SSH Tunnel

[Mellman]

Ok, at work a lot of content is filtered, and ports blocked. I setup openssh on my home PC, but my ISP blocks default ssh ports. So i change them to something else.

The problem is - my office is blocking outgoing traffic on the ports I chose. Rather than try a new port each day, is there a way I can set my source port in putty, to be the standard ssh port, and the destination port to be my home openssh port?

I know openssh is working properly, I used it from another location.

No.

And circumventing security measures is a good way to get fired/prosecuted.

... and in some countries executed 😀

Maybe use netcat somehow...

nc -l 1234 | ((echo "CONNECT ... "; cat) | nc proxy)

where "..." is the rest of the string (something like "remotehost remoteport"). You might also want to put

echo "i surf banned sites from work" | mail -s "violation of company policy" webmaster -c administrator -c root ;

at the front of the command.

its easier than going through all of the beurocracy at the office...I want to connect to a server at home to test some things out on it vs in the corporate environment. of course i could just stand up another VM...but the home box already has everything i need setup.

If I was in your position, I'd find some way to get another computer in the office, whether by your own funds or (preferably) by theirs. Does it have to have top-of-the-line hardware to work for your situation?:

And it's also an easy way to get fired, especially in VA. 😉

Go through the right channels first.
