Heya. Here's what I do: on your home firewall, port-forward TCP port
443 to your echoServer (or, similarly, setup your echoServer to run on
TCP 443 on apublically available IP address). Most commercial firewalls
will allow outgoing traffic to TCP 443 without question. If you can
connect
to your echoServer from work this way, you'll be able to VNC over the
connection.
As far as your IT department getting mad at you...intentionally
compromising their network security policy could be a career-limiting
move. So ask their permission to do what you're doing, *after* you get
it working (IT people love functional solutions too).
Hope that helps!

I would like to be able to access my home computer remotely from work.
The home side is behind a firewall through which I can do port
forwarding to the server side. My work firewall blocks outgoing VNC
and VPN traffic (as well as incoming) so I am at a loss as to how to
do remote access. Any ideas folks that won’t get my IT department mad
at me because I have compromised their security?
