I did some more testing on a client I have direct access to. When the web gui 
opens up, I did a netstat -na and only port 1581 to that client is open. After 
I click on
any of the four buttons and the user/password prompt apears, 2 other ports are 
open. These ports are random in the > 33000 range.  So unless there is an 
option somewhere
to fix these ports, doing this through ssf tunneling is pratically impossible...

Port 1581 allows a remote web browser to connect to the TSM client; if
you're seeing the console, it's working.

To get the client to talk to the server, port 1500 must be open between
the TSM client and the TSM server.
