With Snow Leopard the Mac wakes automatically when accessing to a Bonjour shared resource on LAN, and this is fine. Thanks to Back to My Mac, I can access the resources over WAN too, without having to open firewall ports explicitly, which is also fine.

What I'd like to do now is wake my home Mac Pro while I'm at the office. I thought that Back to My Mac would do this, but no dice, the Mac Pro doesn't wake up when I try to access it over WAN.

Has anyone configured Back to My Mac and Wake on LAN successfully to work over WAN?
