If you're on a Mac running Leopard, you already have everything you need.

1. goto http://dyndns.org and get yourself a dynamic dns name

2. on your router, forward port 8080 to your mac

3. go into system preferences, sharing and check web sharing (if you have the osx firewall running make sure to goto security and allow port 8080)

4. Lets say your dyndns name is tony.dyndns.org and your stoker is at 10.1.1.8, open up terminal and:

a. sudo vim /etc/apache2/other/stoker.conf

To create a file with the following contents:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">Listen 8080
<VirtualHost *:8080>
ServerName tony.dyndns.org
ProxyRequests off
ProxyPass / http://10.1.1.8
ProxyPassReverse / http://10.1.1.8/
</VirtualHost></pre>

b. sudo apachectl graceful

5. You should now be able to open http://tony.dyndns.org:8080 to see your stoker

6. Pat yourself on the back for purchasing a superior operating system.
