I have got two machines. One running behind an HTTP proxy which only allows http connections to internet. (FTP, SSH everything else is not allowed through this network). Second machine is a server with a public IP connected to internet. I can install any software on both these machines. Is there any tool that will help me access second machine from the first? I would like do do things such as FTP transfer, remote login and so on.

Openvpn supports operation over an http proxy. Its client is available on most desktop platforms; the server is available on most unixes. Pro: you can use any network protocol transparently (including UDP and streaming). Con: some setup required; the overhead is noticeable in some applications; you need admin rights on both sides. Httptunnel and Httptunnel each let you set up one TCP connection (e.g., ssh) over HTTP. Pro: you don't need admin rights on either side. Con: you need special software on the server side; expect noticeable overhead; ease of setup and use can vary. If you're only interested in ssh, you can tell it to operate via the proxy by using a program such as corkscrew. Pro: little setup required; no special server-side setup; no connection overhead. Con: doesn't work if the proxy is too restrictive (e.g. doesn't let https through); specific to ssh. It may help to run the server on port 80 or 443. | |||
