Not sure about Naydoe's answer; think this will work... >From a machine in your office that runs sshd: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -R 2022:localhost:22 and leave that connection open. Then at your home machine, you can ssh to localhost:2022 and the connection will be tunnelled to your work machine. Is that what you're after? jan PS.
