need access to network, help

[corbeil]

hello all,

i need to access a telnet server at work that is behind a firewall, there, i just put the ip:23 and connects ok

but i want to access this from home, is there a way i can reach that internal ip, since everything is behind a firewall, i can't reach it directly

i installed hamachi, works fine, i see my share folders from home, even vnc works fine

thanks for any help

Is there a machine at work you can run stuff on that's left all all the time? If so you could use an SSH reverse tunnel sort of thing (although maybe not quite that).

if you can VNC into your machine @ work and your machine at work can telnet into where you want to go whats the problem? /me scratches his head :?

Oh yeah, I missed that part some how. Well VNC wouldn't be the best solution, I'd just install an SSH server on your machine at work and then telnet from that machine to the server.

That would work, unless your using a NAT repeater or something with hamachi, I've never used it. A cheap and nasty way of doing it would be to just VNC into your desktop and access the server from there. Have you tried talking to the IT people about this? You might want to a: clear it with them and b: see if they will add you to the whitelist on the firewall.

If not, do what horza said. Nmap the server as well.
