I'm having some trouble connecting to various machines that aer behind
routers. I've already completed the steps needed for Port Forwarding and
the firewalls are set also. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. If I have
both the WAN IP and the LAN IP, in which order or format should they be?

Aiehgh. I've been Linuxed again.

Yeah, kinda. xmodmap -e 'keycode 64 = Meta_L' allows me to use one key as
the Meta key -- only, it's the wrong key. I unassigned both Alt_L and
Meta_L, and running xev the X server will reassign keys 252 and 253 to
Meta_L and Alt_L. Oddly, even if I switch them, well, I can NEVER make the
Meta key be the Meta key (the keycap on the key the X server wants to call
the meta key has the word 'alt' on it. . . Sigh.
Anyway, yes, un-assigning Alt_L from the key resolves the issue.
Thanks for the help!
