ssh defeats the firewall

[Mark E. Drummond <drummond-m@rmc.ca>]

I love ssh. Use it all the time. I work for an educ institution so I get
to use it for everything. It also defeats the security of the firewall.
A "legit" user can pass _any_ traffic they want through ssh, even if
that traffic is normally denied by the firewall. This can be in handly
actually. Most types of traffic are controlled here, but I just tunnel
my connections through ssh and i can get whatever I want.
