In similar situations I have used ssh to tunnel a connection to the
appropriate port:
ssh -L 8080:localhost:9090 me@myserver
And then opening a browser pointing at localhost:8080 works fine (the proxy
is at the tcp level and not the http level, so geoserver gets the host:
header unchanged). This assumes an ssh service on the machine running
geoserver (which is configured to allow proxying) and an ssh client (default
on basically all linux and other unix-like systems, putty is a good choice
on windows) but may be useful to you.
