You could actually use something like PuTTy and have her make the connection to your ssh server, just reverse the port forwarding so you forward the remote port to the host (or vice versa, I don't remeber the precise direction). This way you don't even have to leave any ports open on her box. Her initiating the session will open a port through her firewall for you to use. -- Greg
