So while it might be nice to know how, the bottom line is that no one in the last decade and change, has come past my router except to look at my web page which is on this machine. I've a one port number wide port forward that allows that. And to my amazement, considering the oddness of that setup, I do log several hundred hits a month on it. 4 GB of downloads from it so far this month.
