If users can bypass a firewall, what's the point of having a firewall?

Subject: Citrix ICA through port 80?


I know that some of you will consider this a bad thing
... that aside, I still need to figure out my options.

We have a demo that runs on Windows Terminal Server
and Citrix MetaFrame.  Some of our potential customers
have firewalls setup that block their users from going
out on unknown ports (if they don't have Citrix
installed already, then they'll block the ports that
ICA uses).

I was wondering ... is there a way to set things up so
that people can connect to our terminal server without
having to involve their IS departments?  Tunneling
over http on port 80, perhaps?

Thanks!
