I am in need of a web based ssh client or some sort of ssh proxy. My employer is blocking outbound port 22 and I would like to use either a web based ssh client, over ssl of course, and be able to ssh into my home machines. Anybody know of something that will work. I know I could move my ssh port to something not blocked, but I am looking for other solutions, treating this as my last resort. :)

Thanks,

I remember IPCop using some sort of browser-based SSH client. Let me look around a bit and see if I can find out what, specifically, they were using.

I think usermin has a package as well, but I was kind of hesitant on installing it since I would need yap (yet another port) :)

why you not want run sshd on different/obfuscated port?

I found these two, but don't know how well the work. Looks interesting though. I'm interested (for obvious reasons) in the solution you end up using.

Both of these have java in them somewhere, the first is a java applet that implements a bit of vt100, the second is a servlet and the interface is html.

Well, because I only have two ports out of here that I know are open http and https, so until I find some more ports I have no other options since 80 and 443 are currently being used :)

wolfjb:

mindterm doesn't work I have already tried, it is more of a client that you use and it still uses port 22(it seems to anyway, can't connect, at least using other peoples sites :))

I will check out the others and see, hopefully they aren't just a web client and all they require are http :)

Darn I always forget about freshmeat....I was looking on sourceforge :(

edit: guess I didn't look hard enough, one of those you linked to was on sourceforge, man to day is not a good day :)
