What kind of functionality do you need to have? You can connect ssh via any
port with -p (see man) so you could use port 80. Then you can bind any port to
go through that secure link and avoid touching the firewall. Since it's
encrypted , it's generally slower that opening the port you want but it gets
around the problem.
If no incoming connections are allowed the customer would have to initiate the
connection.
ssh -p 6622 -L 5900:localhost:5900 blah.dyndns.com
I've found tigervnc fast even for remote X sessions on x86 to x86-64
