As per previous discussions I'm going to set up an ssh reverse tunnel from my eeePC on the boat to my server at home. I will use autossh to run the ssh command on the eeepC so that it will get restarted if it dies for any reason.
The ssh command run on the eeePC on the boat will be something like:-
ssh -R 54321:localhost:22 user@my.home.server
this then allows me to do the following to make an ssh connection from the home server to the eeePC on the boat:-
ssh -p 54321 localhost
Try "ssh -N -f -R 54321:localhost:22 user@your.home.server"
where user @ your home server has no shell (e.g. bin/false)
also see "man ssh"

The text file for RFC 854 contains exactly 854 lines. Do you think there is any cosmic significance in this?
