That's the theory, yes -- however I have a DLink 604e firewall router
at one of my sites that won't do the nonstandard port-to-standard
port mapping successfully.  Ssh didn't work when I tried to map 2022
through to 22; however 22 through to 22 worked fine.

I ended up doing a bit of security-by-obscurity php trick to permit
access from arbitrary locations on the internet; see
