Opening SB 9000 directly to the outside world is a seriously BAD idea! Shudder!!! If you have a fixed IP at home or can use a Dynamic DNS service then install CYGWIN which is an SSH server for Windoz (assuming your using windoz) Mac has SSH built in and its available for all versions of Linux if not already pre installed. Then at work install PUTTY. Point a web browser to localhost and SOCKS proxy in network settings. Set up a dynamic port in PUTTY to point to your home address. Connect. You need to add a user at the home end with permissions to access via SSH. Set a Very secure password! Open and pinhole port 22 (SSH) on the home router to the internal home PC (the SSH server) Enter localhost:9000 in the browser This stuff is very well documented on the net.
