My place of work has a corporate firewall which blocks openSSH but not putty. I'm running Ubuntu, so it's no problem for me to use putty instead, but I have remote servers mounted using sshfs, which doesn't work due to the openSSH block. Is there a way I can either unblock openSSH for use with sshfs, or have sshfs use putty rather than openSSH?

I agree @RedGrittyBrick comment which you need to request for approval, since it might be the case this policy(to allow only putty) is just for temporary use only for IT admins.

Nevertheless, you can try sshfs over ssh-tunnel if you really need to.

  1. Establish ssh tunnel between your PC and server. (How to create SSH tunnel using PuTTY in Windows?)

  2. Mount the remote file system (How to mount remote SSHFS via intermediate machine? Tunneling?)
