I've done this. (in essance) I have a squid proxy at home running on port 80, it is configured to allow HTTPS/CONNECT requests from IPs that I provide. Using that, I can use putty's proxy settings to connect using an HTTPS/CONNECT pipe. Basically when Putty connects, any firewall will assume it's a regular https request and in most cases, they're allowed. -- ~ Darryl ~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://smartssa.com / http://darrylclarke.com
