You could also create an ssh-tunnel if you are behind a firewall to establish a private connection to the target system (which at the time you have performed a uni-directional call, means that you most likely can establish also an ssh-tunnel). It would be also possible to create a bidirectional tcp-based channel that does the same: provides a tunnel where bi-directional traffic can live. This is relatively simple, and should be a good exercise for those of you pondering doing a fun project.
