This is because it would be nice if I could offer remote assistance to my costumers, but most of the time TI guys don't like to open ports or reconfigure anything. The equipment just do some basic logging, and I am using 2.6.21 ts #8 Kernel version, and the full Debian version.

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
