Is it possible to reach secure web sites (HTTPS) from the university? Then you might be able to run the SSH server on the HTTPS port (443), and instruct the SSH client to connect to this port instead. My theory why this might work is that the connection is encrypted and cannot be understood by the proxy, which could force it to just let it through. Regards Ingemar
