Travis:
Wouldn't folks such as DynDns solve the static IP problem if one had a
registered domain?
Thanks all over the place.

Remember that when you connect to your machine, you need to use the ip
address the router has, not the gnat address your machine has. I.E. if
your router had the ip address of 205.230.11.5, then you would need to
sftp to that ip address, and then that router would need to port forward
the sftp ports onto the 192.168.2.15 ip inside the network, since that is
not a valid ip address outside of your local network.
If you don't have a static ip on your router, then you'll need to look it
up everytime someone wants to connect to you.
This gets quite problematic as you can imagine, which is usually why
folks who run servers have static ips on their devices that are sitting
between them and the outside, to facilitate this sort of activity.
