Very interested to hear some knowledgable users comments on this. I am behind a NAT router, have a dynamix IP but will use dynDNS, and I have port 80 blocked by ISP. I plan to open SSH and a port for HTTP (1010 or 1080) so I can use MythWeb when out of the house. I will obvisouly change my crappy root password when I get to opening the ports..
