Or, you can just have your ssh server listen on port 443.  The only way
this wouldn't work is if either (1) port 443 is blocked, which is extremely
unlikely; or (2) you're behind an application firewall that detects and
blocks non-SSL traffic-- also extremely unlikely.  Even the firewall at the
agency where I work, which blocks non-HTTP traffic to port 80, doesn't do
that.

Good luck,
A.
