    Hi Steve,

    If port 443 is open, this enables you to tunnel any protocol. I'm confused
    with you saying you need to authenticate with the proxy server first. That
    would mean only port 80 and 443 outbound _from the proxy_ is allowed through
    the firewall. If that proxy only supports Kerberos authentication, I don't
    know what shell client you could use.

    Anyway, here's the setup I currently use: I have an outside Linux box with
    SSHd on port 443, to which I log in using PuTTY, via an ISA 2004 proxy, with
    Basic proxy authentication. Tunneling is an option in PuTTY, so that's what
    I use to tunnel my IMAP, RDP, VNC and SMTP.

    To get it working in your case, I'ld first verify if it's only the proxy
    that is allowed through the firewall, and whether you are able to let PuTTY
    authenticate to the proxy.

    Kind regards,

    Jeroen van Meeuwen
