I chose Adelphia for my high speed internet service here in lovely 
Vermont. Well, actually, Adelphia is the ONLY choice. Don't get me 
started. DSL isn't even in sight.

I would like to be able to ssh into my home machine from a remote 
internet site or someone else's computer. I've tried a couple of things 
I thought might work and no such lunch. I understand Adelphia might be 
using NAT to route packets to my home machine. If this is true, does it 
mean I'm can't ssh remotely? How, if possible, can I get through. There 
is a company in Boston that advertises a package that does dynamic DNS 
for home computers. I haven't looked into how it works, though. There's 
gotta be a way!

Thanks,

Alex
