If you can connect with ssh then port-forwarding is probably your best
bet. Just forward lots of ports across and you can do whatever you want.
Another trick when using programs that don't like non-standard ports -
have them listen on 127.0.0.2 or another loopback IP (the loopback
network is a class A network). Many (most?) ssh clients will forward
ports from one of these IPs - so you can use ports that would otherwise
be in use by your own OS (like SMB/etc).
