Whilst http and telnet proxied thruogh ssh is possible, and locking down access to only allow port forwarding is (theoretically, as in , off the top of my head I can't think of a way to do it) possible, tunnelling FTP through SSH is going to be a real pain in the arse, so I recommend you look for something that tunnels at the IP layer, like as others have suggested, OpenVPN, PPTP, or something heavy like OpenSWAN and a full IPSec stack -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
