I have a client behind a fairly tight firewall that is controlled at a much higher level than me. Getting port 1984 authorized is something that is not going to happen, but port 22 is open going both ways. As user "bb" on the server, or on the client, I can ssh from one system to the other without a password prompt.
Is there a way to convince Hobbit to talk over an ssh tunnel?
A tunnel with port forwarding would be simple to do. On the client you'd do ssh -L 1984:localhost:1984 MYHOBBITSERVER and then your client should be configured with "BBDISP=127.0.0.1" in hobbitclient.cfg
