I would suspect the most popular solution to this would be some sort of
ipsec VPN.

Subject: [Networker] Java interface tunneling

Hello,

90% of our team is located behind firewalls.  The only way to reach
servers is through ssh ports (2 hops). 

This implies that it is impossible to run the java tool on their pc.  I
made a script that starts te tool on the backupserver in an ssh session.
That way, it is possible to run it through an ssh X session to a pc
somewhere.  This works, but very very slow. 

Are there other possibilities?  I suppose a lot of organisations have
there backupserver behind firewalls?
