Hi,

I'd like to be able to use MSN Messenger's webcam from behind a
firewall.  I'd like to do this by tunnelling through the firewall to a
remote host with SSH (either putty or openssh) and forwarding ports as
needed.  I'm familiar with port forwarding and the
/Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts file - but everything that I've
tried so far has failed.

I'm using Windows XP SP1 and have a Creative Ultra NX webcam.

The answer will describe which ports need to be forwarded (local,
remote or possibly dynamic), destination addresses and ports, and
whether remote connections need to be allowed.  The answer will be
verified for full credit.
