I port-forwarded 9000 TCP and 3483 (both).  Am I right in thinking 3483
is only necessary for a Squeezebox? For remote streaming and web access
only 9000 is needed?

Yes.

I kept IP blocking on and added his IP to the whitelist.  I also
password-protected the server.  Yes, this is probably overdoing it but
you can never be too secure.

I'm not so sure about overdoing it. Slimserver is definitely _not_ designed with security in mind.

We easily got access to the SlimServer web page after entering the user
name and password.  However remote streaming wouldn't work.  He had both
Winamp and WMP 10.  Both apps asked for login/password but neither one
would play.  Winamp just kept cycling through connection - error -
connection - error and WMP 10 said it "didn't have the correct codec".

Did you try to connect to http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:9000 ?
