I will take a look at coding in the -R flag for this Steve...
Gonna take a while as I will have to re-up my Plan 9 network...
... or is that it??

...thing you'll want to do is ssh into your server but this time we're going to pass a -R flag and a port number. That flag "Specifies that the given port on the remote (server) host is to be forwarded to the given host and port on the local side." Basically a reverse tunnel..

Hi,
In order to get remote access through a firewall I
currently have a script which I run on the inside
of the firewall which posts a file descriptor I
can mount from home.
while(~ true true){
cpu -h home -c 'rm -f /srv/work ; srvfs work /mnt/term ; while() sleep 600 '>[2] /dev/null
sleep 10
}
so at home I just:
mount /srv/work /n/work
bind /n/work/net /net.alt
This works but the performance is not great espicially
if I cpu into the work machine from home:
cpu -u /net.alt/tcp!work
I assume the lack of zip is due to the multiple 9p round
trips necessary to establish the connection.
Is there a more elegant, and hopefully more performant way of
do this using import -B?
failing that any other techniques?
sadly ssh -R isn't very useful on plan9 (I think).
