[KLUG Members] how can I get around a port block to setup vpn?

[Rusty Yonkers]

I am wanting to setup a vpn between work and home.  At work our
internet connection goes through a firewall that I do not control. 
They have blocked a number or ports and services.  One of them
appears to be vpn.  Is there a way that I can setup a tunnel through
the firewall to home that would get by that??  

I also probably need to be able to find what ports are open through
the firewall.  Is there a way to test that?  ICMP is blocked.  I know
that I could use nessus if I was looking at a computer but since the
firewall is a through point would it still work (I have never used
nessus but am familiar with it)?
