I have several FreeBSD servers that I will be deploying to remote locations. They will be sitting behind a NAT. I would like them to make a SSH connection to a local server sitting on a public IP. I need them connected in a way that will give me remote shell access. Has anyone done this before? I'd rather not re-invent the wheel. TIA for any pointers. Elliot
