I'm pretty sure they don't firewall SSH...we're sort of encouraged to use it for transferring large data files. I mean, if I'm at home on my laptop, I can easily SSH into my network drive at school, and then once I'm at this point (the network drive), I can alos SSH onto the local drive of the iMac I use, and have full use of applications that support 'tunneled' graphics (pardon if this is the wrong word) in X11. I tried trashing my ~/.ssh files on my laptop, and on my networked drive, to see if this could relieve the problem, but alas, it didn't work.

EDIT: I also forgot to mention I have no problem SSHing around on my LAN at home, use it all the time to transfer files, etc between the desktop and laptop.
