Just for clarification - what "service" should be running? And the FVG router is firewalled - but the port-forwarding should override that in the router's settings.
and - yeah - the -p 22 setting is redundant. i am doing just to make sure.
On your target machine (where you want to end up eventually) still needs to be running the Service. On that machine you want to access go to System Preferences -> Sharing and then select "Remote Login" This will turn on the SSH Service.

Yeah - that's the first thing I did. I can remote login via the LAN, just having a bit of a time doing it from outside the LAN.

Thanks Travis...
Bah...drop-down menu in the router's config screen had the port-forwarding set to "run" on a schedule but no schedule was set. Changed to "always on" and now I can ssh with no problems.
Now - getting iTunes to stream is the next step.....got the settings, just need to start testing it. Off to the bagel place tomorrow morning where free WiFi is running.
Snow Leopard is out on the prowl this Friday! anyone pre-ordering?
I got my pre-order in, only because I qualified for the $10 upgrade. I'm hoping that it runs better on this 13" Macbook Pro than Leopard does. Otherwise it'll be back to Windows 7 for me.

Pupator, how far back in this thread are the stories of your MacBook Pro woes? Assuming you've done the usual like running something that routinely repairs your permissions and something that repairs the catalog like Disk Warrior?
Pupator, how far back in this thread are the stories of your MacBook Pro woes?
Lynne,
I haven't mentioned them much because the Macbook Pro is very new to me. The solution to the constant (I mean ever 4-5 minutes) beachball of death was to disable the hard drive's shock sensor. Not an idea solution but it worked instantly. The other problem is just general sluggishness. I just upgraded it from 2GB --> 3GB about 5 minutes ago.
Now the computer takes 4-5x as long to open applications (cold) but everything else runs a bit faster. I sort of expected the cold-start slowdown because this memory performs best in matched pairs and I didn't have the budget to do that right now.
Assuming you've done the usual like running something that routinely repairs your permissions and something that repairs the catalog like Disk Warrior?
Nope. I thought Macs were just supposed to work. Especially when they're two weeks old.
The suggestion was that I needed to routinely "repair my permissions" and "repair my catalog." You think I'm unreasonable to wonder how that jives with "It just works" ?
Disabling the shock sensor and adding the extra gig of RAM have helped.

All I know is something is wrong, and those two things could help. I, for one, run Macaroni ($8) to repair perms behind the scenes. You will need to run Disk Warrior from time to time, I would recommend at least every 6 months. Your directory will corrupt over time. I know yours is new, but there is something wrong. It could be hardward, it could be the directory, or it could be that you need to reinstall your OS. But it's NOT the MBP/Leopard combination generically. It's something specific to you.

You don't. Those suggestions are years out of date and really aren't applicable to modern OS/X. I own many macs, I don't do any of that BS.

You might be right about the permissions, but a disk's directory will corrupt over time and running something like Disk Warrior once or twice a year, or when you are having problems, is a very, very good idea.
I had a problem with spinning beachballs on my MacPro for a long, long time, but ONLY when I was running Final Cut Pro (which I don't do all that often at home). I reinstalled the OS, tried making a new, fresh user, had the motherboard replaced, and nothing fixed it. It was only when I did a completely fresh reinstall of the OS (erase and install instead of archive and install) that I managed to purge whatever it was that was causing the problem, and now it's all good.
Pupator's problems are not normal, expected, or the result of running Leopard on a 13" MB. There is something wrong. Yes, even cowgirls get the blues and even Macs can have problems. It's not magic, ya know!

Nuke and Pave as I call it. My plan for Snow Leopard install.
Snow Leopard
Interesting statement from John Nack's blog:
As I say, we have reason to expect that all meaningful issues of running Photoshop CS3 under Snow Leopard have been resolved. However, because we have not done the level of testing that true certification demands, we need to stand by our statement that we don't officially support CS3 on Snow Leopard.
The key word here is "meaningful." What may be a minor annoyance to some could be a real PITA to others. I have always recommended not being the first on the block to install brand new software. What Nack mentions in his blog seems trivial enough, but if you are running CS3, it's probably a good idea to wait a bit and see what other issues arise in the real world.
I was able to re-enable the shock sensor and the spinning beach-ball of death hasn't returned, so that's good news.
Speed feels the same as Leopard to me. I do like the new way the Documents Stack works - much more helpful.
In other news, I've been trying to use Pages. It has some features I really, really like, but I'm afraid there might be a deal-breaker. Yes, it will open (nearly perfectly) my .docx MS Word files. But, it can't save them?
And even if I save them as a .doc, I have to save a copy, which means that I have two identical documents in the folder (one .doc and one .pages)? In fact, if I'm opening a document from one of my other computers I have three files there - the .docx, the .doc, and the .pages. Is this really how it works?
So I have read various other forums, and it appears that Adobe Flash is the culprit as far as I can tell. Websites with embedded Flash (most sites that my daughter visits for online games (Bella Sara, PBS Kids, etc.) cause the processor(s) to greatly heat up, the cooling fan kicks in, internet comes to a halt (as I think one of the processors is shut off due to the heat).
Anybody else experience this as well? Any solutions? Will Snow Leopard fix this?
I'm very impressed with the Snow Leopard install. Especially after my wife thought it was a good idea to close her laptop halfway through the install! She "forgot" that I was installing it, and when I reopened the lappy, I couldn't get it to do anything useful, so I had to do a hard power down by holding the power key. Very ungraceful.
I restarted the computer, and it picked up right where it left off and finished the installation, no problem.
There's no huge new features, but lots of nice, subtle changes, and it's leaner and meaner. There's better feedback throughout the OS. One thing I love love love (even though I've not had the opportunity to use it yet) is smart eject. I always hated that message "try quitting applications until you stumble on the one that's keeping you from ejecting the media, and good luck!!!" (paraphrased).

Yes, I had this experience as well. For me the culprit was DTD, which I spent way too much time playing anyway. On the MBA it was only a few minutes before it got really hot and after about 15-20 minutes the game became unplayable.
Should I get a Macbook Pro?
I did, but it depends on what you want. I switched to the 13" MBP because the weight was still tolerable, the speed was much (much) faster, and the battery life was incredible. After the MBA was only about 18 months old I was down to <2 hours of battery life. With the MBP I'm near 7. Even if I'm doing everything you shouldn't do to preserve battery life I still get 4-5.
I've played DTD on the MBP and, though it does it warmer than usual, game play does not come to a screeching halt.
Will Snow Leopard fix it? I dunno, but for $29 it's probably worth a shot. That'll be much cheaper than upgrading to the MBP.

And shutdown is really fast.
Good news
(especially now that I'm diving into the world of video, I can use all the lean and mean I can get)
Before I dive in this evening to the upgrade, does anyone have any comments on using Snow Leopard with CS3?
Thanks
I've been using CS3 with Snow Leopard since Saturday. The only issue I've come across is that Bridge seems to take significantly longer than before to load and display all the images when you switch from one folder to another. I haven't found any problems with ACR and PS but then I haven't done a whole lot of editing in the last few days.
Having said that I just ordered the CS4 upgrade to take advantage of the $100 discount that expires today.

Oh, come on.
Anyway, there is something wrong with your system. It should not be working like that. It's not Leopard.

FYI, I upgraded my Macbook Air and my Mac Pro (4th year of service!) to Snow Leopard, no problems or issues.
FYI SL ships with a slight back level of flash, you'll want to head to Adobe's site and update Flash to the newest version.
The "Remote Install OS X" feature of OS X rocks, I was able to install to my Macbook Air (sans optical drive) from my Mac Pro. Easy peasy! :jfriend
