[Tfug] DynDNS howto

[daniel galaska]

hi predrag --

i think that port forwarding is something that you set
up on the router 
-- i.e. set your router to forward port 80 requests to
a specific 
machine behind the router. i have been trying to make
my home computer 
accessible remotely via ssh and have forwarded that
port to the static 
ip address of the home machine.

i'm certainly no expert, but hope that this helps.

cheers.
