The following works for a firewal - but should work for nat-router as well - if you can get to a machine behind it (via ssh). Basically you can tunnel rdesktop via ssh-portforwarding. assuming you can get to machine srv.net (via ssh) but not foo.net & bar.net 1. enable ssh-portforwarding ssh srv.net -L13389:foo.net:3389 -L23389:bar.net:3389 2. Now to connect to foo.net you would do: rdesktop localhost:13389 3. To connect to bar.net, you would do: rdesktop localhost:23389 Alternatively you can just invoke rdesktop on srv.net (using ssh X11 forwarding) Satish
