I'm in an environment where I cannot reach Second Life because of a restriction on outbound ports.

I don't have access to an outside proxy server.

However, I do have access to a Secure Shell server (SSH).

Has anyone already fleshed out the list of FQDNs needed to be mapped?

Has anyone already tried using SSH to successfully reach Second Life using the Second Life client?

I would suggest packet capturing an SL connection sequence; I haven't heard of anyone doing this yet but it should work fine.

You are right of course... I posted this question in hope that I could avoid reinventing the wheel.
