Use Socks 4/5 on Remote Desktop

[petrocelly]

Is it possible to configure remote desktop connection via
socks 4/5 ? I need it for bypassing my works firewall, so
i can work at home. Or is there any other software that
can handle it ? Any help is good, thanx

Nope.. Remote Desktop is not SOCKS compliant...

The only way to get this to work is to tunnel the connection - using
either a VPN or HTTPTunnel...

Perhaps SocksCap would work also.
