If one end is public, connect direct (easier), or use your server as a server and the ends as clients and route between at the server end - can be fun (not) to get to work :) Zebedee is a port based tunnel when only a single (or a few) ports needs tunneling between two end points - designed originally for vnc type connections and works great over low bandwidth and poor quality connections. ssh tunnel - similar to zebedee but Ive found it flakey and unreliable with anything other than a good connection between two end points, far prefer zebedee for this, but ssh is on almost everything by default these days.
