Jakob,
        Nice.  On my segment, Comcast will not allow ANY inbound traffic.  They
are running a statefull firewall which only allows inbound traffic in
response to outbound requests.  If you have a trick to wrk around that
I'd like to hear it.  It used to work, but over thanksgiving of last
year they changed their firewall rules and the first I heard about it
was when my mother called to tell me she couldn't log into my machine to
upload some photos to me.  I spent about 2 weeks trying to work around
it or talk them into at least reallowing SSH inbound so when I travel I
could SSH to my machine to pick up any files I'd forgotten, but nothing
doing.

                        -Mike
