ssh tunnel

hi guys,

Here's my situation, on my company network port 22 is blocked, on my remote server ssh is on port 22, could I ssh to my nas on port 443 and tunnel to the remote server? I found this article

http://www.verot.net/socks.htm

I've set 443 to point to the nas but I can't seem to ssh using that port? just seems to hang for ages? I also added port 443 to the ssh config.

Any ideas?

Re: ssh tunnel

Did you restart the SSH service after changing the configuration file?

Re: ssh tunnel

Port 443 is already used for https for accessing Frontview (web-admin page). You'll need to try a different port.

Re: ssh tunnel

Could i set my router to foward external 443 traffic to the nas on another port?

Re: ssh tunnel

Some routers can. That would be ideal solution, to port forward to port 22 on NAS.

What router do you have?

Re: ssh tunnel

I'm currently port fowarding 80, 22 and 443 to the nas and thats working, but i'll have to check if i can forward 443 to 22. The router is Huawei HG521
