Help with getting around a proxy server...

Ok here is the scoop...

At work our internet connection is throuh a proxy server which only allows port 80 and 443 (for obvious reasons). The problem comes from the fact that I am running a server which has Plesk installed on it. In order to manage the server I need to go to port 8443, but due to the proxy server cannot reach it.

What I'm wondering is how to setup my Red Hat Linux 7.1 box or Sun Solaris 8 box to route all incoming requests on 192.168.0.1, port 443 to say 192.168.0.1 8443, and vice versa. This way when I access https://192.168.0.1/, I'll be able to get out of the proxy, and access the Plesk admin page.

Thus:

My puter 443 -------> 443 Proxy 443 -------> 443 Server 1 8443 -----> 8433 Plesk server

Plesk server 8433 ----> 8443 Server 1 443 ----------> 443 Proxy 443 ------> 443 My puter

There are also other clients of mine who are behind proxies as well, and can not access the admin interface too, so this would benefit them as well.

Thanks Help with getting around a proxy server...
