All, -- goal -- I want to be able to "remote desktop" from my house to my office, but a NAT firewall is blocking me and I don't have the ability to open a hole in the firewall. The target machine is a Windows 7 PC. I setup logmein hamachi, and I've been very disappointed how often it goes down / fails, so I want to use my own infrastructure. I have a cloud based openSUSE box I can use to build a reverse tunnel on, so I'm hoping a "remote desktop" session can be routed through the cloud based server. -- history -- I have in the past needed to remotely log into a openSUSE PC hidden behind a NAT router which I did not have control of the router to setup a firewall forwarding rule. I used autossh on the target opensuse box to establish a reverse tunnel to a cloud based linux server. Then anytime I wanted to ssh into the target I just ssh'ed into the cloud based server and my connection got forwarded to the target opensuse box. I hoping to somehow do something similar, but with MS remote desktop this time. -- ideas -- I'm totally flexible on how this is accomplished. The opensuse server in the cloud doesn't have to be part of the solution, but I suspect using it as a SSH forwarder will be my best option to let me tunnel remote desktop traffic through it most.
