What's the best way to log in remotely to the mac I have at home from my laptop while away from home? I'm interested in two ways of doing this:

1) Using a Terminal, i.e. ssh-based login

2) Full VNC-type login

I'm having some trouble figuring out:

a) what to change about the settings of my home Mac without making it overly insecure. I'm using Snow Leopard on both home and portable Mac

b) what the IP address to ssh to would be. My provider is comcast cable. I'm using an Airport Extreme as router.

Thanks all in advance for your help.
