ssh tunnel. Bind the "CGI" to localhost so that nothing can reach it directly, then connect from outside with: ssh -L 1234:localhost:1234 username@your_external_dns_name and point your client at localhost:1234 on the box where you're running the ssh process. (If you're stuck with a non-command-line ssh, check its documentation for local port forwarding.) (Note - please check your email client settings and do not reply to me directly. I sent this to the mailing list because I want conversation to happen on the mailing list.) _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
