hi, i am a regular user of the mississippi ptp network, and on most
days can connect from my home a couple blocks away.  i am wondering
what ptp policy is for setting up nat or port forwarding (etc) for us
normal users to be able to get to our ptp-connected machines from the
outside world?

obviously there are matters of security to contend with and so forth,
but i am thinking of an unused outside port mapping to port 80 of my
linux box (presumably on a mac-assigned static internal ip address),
so that i can demo some of my web development to outsiders.  as a
bonus, another port going to 22 wouldnt hurt either! heh

this is not at all an urgent or critical inquiry, more just one of
curiosity.  i tend to push things through svn to outside hosts when i
*really* need to show some development, but it would just be so
convenient to have somewhere to point to that has the active
development.

thanks much, especially for keeping the network going over here!

p.s. i have offered before, but will state again -- i am available for
any light net admin kinda maintenance on the mgp network as needed.  i
even helped climb up on the ballroom roof once to get some new
equipment in.  lemme know.
