Using ARD and ssh for secure remote administration
Authored by: Thom on Nov 11, '03 11:18:42PM

I maintain a machine at work that's mapped through a hardware-based firewall, e.g. I can access it from outside of the firewall on a public IP address. Normally, this machine is running ARD's client so I can connect to it.

However, I'd like to be able to stop the ARD client via ssh, then modify the machine's ipfw table (or similar) so that it passes all ARD traffic to *another* machine inside the firewall, in case I had to fix something from home. Then, when finished, I'd want to remove that rule and re-start the ARD client on the machine itself.

Is this type of 'ARD NATting / redirecting' possible?
