UDP Port Forwarding

[Gazeeb]

I am having a difficult time trying to figure out how to configure my TCP/UDP ports. I need to be able to open these ports, as well as set up UDP port forwarding. Despite much searching through the forums here and other sites, I have no idea what to do. Can someone please help me out?

On your Mac or on your router?

On my Mac, yes.

Forwarding is for multihomed devices (i.e. they have network connections to 2 different networks). What are you trying to accomplish?

I'm trying to be able to connect my laptop at school with my computer at home, so that I can both access files in between the two as well as be able to set up online gaming with my brother.

I've done this on Windows before (with some help) but can handle the task well enough on XP. In contrast, I have no idea how to accomplish this on Leopard.

So, help?
