I'm running the BitTorrent *tracker* here on my local network.  I have a 
dedicated high-bandwidth server offsite that is seeding the torrents. 
The torrent has hardcoded into it the location of the tracker 
(http://dns.name.of.my.router:6969/announce), so if I want to download 
torrents to a machine on the LAN here, I have to be able to connect to 
that machine on that port.

Does that make sense?

Regards,
Jon Heese
