OpenSSH configuration question

[Joey McAlerney <joey@silicondefense.com>]

I am running sshd with RhostsRSAAuthentication turned on.  When I pass
through a firewall during an ssh, the source port gets bumped up to a
non-privilaged range, so sshd won't allow the connection.  From what I
gather from the man pages (and I'm hoping I haven't missed anything),
there is not option to add to the sshd config file to allow connections
from non-privilaged ports.

The only way around this that I can think of is to change the ipnat
rules in the firewall.  I'm not really the administrator of that box, so
would like to avoid this.

Any thoughts?
