Re: ISP's supporting sshd on port 443?

I run an instance of sshd on port 443 as well on most of my servers, due to firewall restrictions at some of my clients' sites. Mostly all of my servers are FreeBSD, 4.x and 5.x, usually -STABLE branch.

The only problem I have run into is if I'm running web services (apache in my case), I have to bind to specific IP's and ports in the apache conf on the machine, as if you let it try to bind to all addresses, Apache conflicts with sshd. Other than that, I've been running it like that for almost 2 years now.

Hi,

Are the any ISP's (FreeBSD based hopefully) that run sshd on port 443? 

Yes, I'm running sshd on 443 on the local machine.  Any troubles
with it ?

I'm now going to sites that put one in http proxy hell.  I need to
ssh out using OpenSSH's ProxyCommand feature.  The only port out
is 443.
