The ssh command I listed below is entered into a console window on your
local workstation, assumed to be 'across the untrusted internet' from your
IPCOP's RED interface.
It will create a tunnel, and make port 445 on the IPCOP's GREEN interface
magically appear as if it's now on your local machine's port 4445.
Then you open a browser on your local machine, and connect to the local
port 4445. Your packets will be automagically wisked thru the tunnel, and
will appear to the ipcop box as if they had originated locally.

Oh, BTW, in addition to enabling ssh access, I hope you also checked the
box to 'enable port forwarding'!
