I tried the redirection on no-ip.org, which is I think the thing that
you provided the link for. But this service just forwards the URLs to a
non-80 port. I think it also puts the "http://"; prefix someplace in the
domain name during the redirection. In any case, it does not work with
ssh connections, the attempt times out.
The problem is not that port 80 of a destination is blocked. The problem
is that the source gateway allows packets to *only* port 80 to the WAN.
BTW, is there a tool which lets me run a command shell within a browser
window? That would work on port 80.
