Re: Simple way to securely access remote machine that's behind a NAT?

What I'd like to do is access it from my local NetBSD system (which does
have a  'real' IPv4 address), something like this:

1) Start some 'daemon' on the remote linux box that attempts a connection
to ...
2) .. my local NetBSD box.

And

3) some local NetBSD program that allows me to get a shell prompt of the
remote linux machine here on my NetBSD machine via the connection set up in
(1) and (2).

I assume you can't be in two places at once -- i.e., you want to have the rPi
do <whatever> and SIT ("daemon"), possibly waiting *indefinitely*, for a
connection from the NetBSD box (which is "remote" to the rPi)?
