Hi,

I was wondering whether anyone here has managed to connect to a machine
behind a firewall using ssh.

Here is the setup:

Machine A ----->| Firewall |---------> Machine B


Machine A is inside the firewall and Machine B outside.  I can do almost
any normal net activity (http, PASV [This is important] FTP, https, NNTP
etc.) from machine A.

I want to be able to connect to machine A from machine B that is outside
the firewall and run applications (xterm, netscape, mutt, trn etc.) on
machine A but DISPLAY-ing on machine B.  Both machine are Linux boxes. 
Machine A is not pinggable from machine B.

I guess before I leave work I need to run something on machine A to create
a runnel to machine B and when I reach home I need to do something on
machine B and use the tunnel to run apps on machine A.

How exactly do I do this?

Thaths
