Okay I think I figured it out. So I have to set $__config_tiddlyweb_host.tid to http://wiki.helpdeskaleer.com:8080 and then regardless of if I'm inside or outside the network, I have to set my /etc/hosts to the host FQDN (internal to the network) with 127.0.0.1 on the client laptop and then do local port forwarding to the SSH gateway through to the host on port :8080. Then in the browser I have to use http://wiki.helpdeskaleer.com:8080/windows/wsus and then as long as have both of those requirements setup on the laptop remote or local, I'll be able to access nginx/tiddlywiki.
