hi @all!

i am looking for a little piece of software.
i currently have an internet connection, which allows no other traffic than HTTP via port 80 and HTTPS via port 443. but i need to have some SSH and FTP connections and additionally somme HTTP connection to other ports than 80. I thougt of "tunneling" the traffic via HTTP to some server which then connects the destination server with FTP or SSH.
does somebody know some software that acts like a proxy for the above mentioned aspects?

Hi,
squid is a proxy and it can do so.

Do you control the proxy ?
If you do, why not use NAT instead of a proxy, then all those things will work ?

If you are behind a proxy you don't control, you are out of luck...
You may be able to use the 'connect' method. See http://www.taiyo.co.jp/~gotoh/ssh/connect.html
