Accessing through a firewall using SSH with port forwarding
To do this, set up your SSH program to forward local port 80 to port 80 on the FogBUGZ server, and then use a URL like http://localhost to get to FogBUGZ.
If port 80 on your own machine is already in use, you can forward a different local port, for example port 81, to port 80 on the FogBUGZ server, and use a URL like http://localhost:81 to get to FogBUGZ.
To make this work, you may have to add an identity to IIS for localhost.
- Run Internet Services Manager
- Right click on the FogBUGZ web site and choose Properties
- In the Web Site tab, under Web Site Identification, click Advanced
- Add another identity for localhost
