Why not comply and install VPN? I face the same issue at my company, and that's how I work from home. Fortunately, they allow VM. On 2024-02-12 20:22, Peter King via talk wrote:
Honestly, I won’t do that. About three weeks ago I had gotten approval for a new static ip address, at which point I asked for them to allow me to ssh to that address. I was *refused* and told I had to use a VPN because they “have to protect shh from the internet.” (!!!)
An IT department that thinks ssh needs to be protected is not a department you want to deal with, ever.
If I ask them about bandwidth I fear they will take away ssh access from the address I already had.
Yes, this is what your tax dollars pay for.
