SSH provides security via encryption, so it makes it much harder to
snoop your data including userid and password. However, if some one is
able to comprimise your userid/password, then you have made the
firewall a joke because it is so easy to tunnel other protocols via
ssh. I'd suggest that inbound ssh only be done with strong auth such
as SecurID.

I have started research into running ssh accross the INTERNET.
My preliminary research has shown much promiss.
I would appreciate any feedback on this.
I am particularly interested in firewall issues, ie proxy or IP
forwarding problems.
Thanks for any correspondance.
