Seems to be working now - with ORListenAddress 0.0.0.0:9001 .
Thanks to those who actually tried to help with suggestions, correct or
otherwise.

Hi,
I'm not mirroring the directory server (yet) so I assume I don't need
to
worry about the directory port.
I did enable UPnP on my router (temporarily) and tried the Test
button in
the Vidalia Relay setup page, and it reported 'Success'. However, on
examining the Port Forwarding page, there was then no sign of a rule
for Tor
or Vidalia.
I disabled UPnP after that.
I'm using OSX 10.3.9.
I went into the Firewall section of 'Sharing' and added a rule for
Tor:
"This is your firewall entry for Tor: it is currently on and all TCP
network
traffic on port(s) 9001 is being let through".
Yet still I get
"[Warning] Your server (xx.xx.xx.xx:9001) has not managed to confirm
that
its ORPort is reachable. Please check your firewalls, ports, address,
/etc/hosts file, etc"
My Port Forwarding rule (added manually) says
"Protocol TCP
Port Start 9001
Port End 9001
Port Map 9001"
Is there a way I can check the Port Forwarding independently of Tor?
Thanks,
GD

Then all you need to do to run a relay is configure one via the
Vidalia
"Setup Relaying" button in the Vidalia Control Panel.
Tor will generally figure out the rest.
If your router supports upnp, Vidalia will attempt to configure any
port
forwarding for you.
If not, then yes, you need to port forward your orport and dirport
from
the external router to your machine. If for some reason you use the
osx
firewall, you'll also need to open the tcp ports for the orport and
dirport. If you are using 10.5 (leopard), when you configure a relay
through vidalia, the system should ask you to allow or deny the
correct
ports.
The easiest next step may be to start with a fresh torrc and let
Vidalia
do the work of configuring the relay.

First, take any advice from Phobos before mine.
Second, I opened up Vidialia on my computer (I'm old school and
usually do this in a text editor); under sharing what is the Relay
Port set to? Is it the same as what your router currently has
configured? I *think* the default (under Vidalia 0.1.9) is 443, not
9050. Make sure your router reflects that.
Finally, note what Phobos said above about using the OSX firewall. It
could be getting in the way (says the guy who only runs Windows &
Linux)
