i'm sure that it works like that

but i deal with enviroments where there is no route from internal to external

not a single port routes

i'm talking tripple firewalled enviroments... big banks and gouvernemental setups... to get to a webpage, you contact a HTTP proxy server locally , and that one then processes your request, checks, filters, caches and logs...

for one thing, if there is no route, then you cannot tunnel

for another thing, any type of creativity in those enviroments, get's you fired and prosecuted...



you may laugh at your corporate firewall
but nobody laughs at the ones i see @ some of my customers sites...
