More info
I was just wondering, why recommend a solution which involves opening up a port on your desktop for no apparent reason? This is, IMHO, a solution if and only if you really need the ssh service running for some other reason. Don't forget, there's alot of bad guys out there.

EDIT: Or maybe there is a reason. Battery life and data traffic economy?
