It probably won’t ask you for a password if you ran the commands in reasonably quick succession. If you wait for a while before you run the second command, the system will ask you for a password. That’s how sudo usually works.

The IP address that you see on your xbox con page would be the right one to substitute on the command line. I think you are doing it right.

Either way, the best way to test if the things are going right is to test for connectivity from within xbox. HTH

I typed in the first script and it asked for my password which I typed in and moved on to the second.

I typed the second part in substituting (what I believe to be) my IP Address of my XBOX. After entering that script, I did NOT ask to type my password. Should it prompt me that second time or not?

Sorry if this paragraph sounds like I’m completely unable to read to guide, but I just wanted to make sure. I say what I believe to be my XBOX’s IP above because I’m not sure if I’m entering the right thing. On my XBOX Conf. page, it says IP Address, Gateway and the two DNS servers. I used the one labeled IP Address. Is that the correct one? Thanks!

I am afraid I am not sure. I haven’t really every played with upnp.

In my case the two networks are different, sharing the wifi connection over Ethernet causes the Ethernet connection to be on a different network. Since the network is different, some sort of address translation is needed.

What I was thinking is that, since the slingbox can reach *out* to the internet, but you can’t route *in* to it, isn’t this a problem that can be solved with routing, not nat’ing? For example, can the Mac Mini be configured to route the inbound traffic, as it does the outbound? I wouldn’t have thought NAT would be required for this. I may be missing something though (aside from the fact that I don’t personally know how to do this, which is obvious :) ).
