Hmm... I'm running Apache, ssh and vsftp on my machine and it works fine
(I have Comcast too).

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.

As far as I know, the "setup Wizard" isn't actully required. Their

they want to charge an extra $50 per month to let me get inbound
requests at all, so I'm switching away from them as soon as I can get a
reasonable alternative.

what do you mean by "inbound requests at all"? I am writing this email
while logged into my home machine from my mom's 'Doze box in Indiana.
