external: localhost, if the ssh server is running on the same machine as
slimserver. Or "yourslimserver" if this is your server's name. But don't

house and back in through the router.
Everything seems to be in place and working as I can connect to my
Slimserver via a browser using madeupname.homedns.org:9000 and if I
Don't do this. Don't open these ports to the net as _anyone_ could connect
there, having fun waking you up at night with some songs from your
