Know about VNC, heard about SSH.

Next idiot question goes something like, "VNC or SSH to /where/?"  Home 
machine is generally off, and even if it were on, I currently haven't 
the slightest idea 1) what my cable modem's IP address is, and 2) How to 
get access to it on the other side of the router.

(I'm educable, though, so any ideas on how to do that?  The 
"documentation" that accompanies the router is just the other side of 
useless, and Comcast is generally inaccessible...)

I've been in contact with the colo people. They've hard booted the

I'll keep everyone updated.

Thanks for the concern, Brenda.

I'm still sick, both flu and fibromyalgia, not to mention highly
stressed at work and home for various reasons.

I managed to get the colo facility to reboot the machine once, but it
was done improperly, and I'm not getting any responses from them now
about the contents of the console. 

Additionally, I haven't gotten any responses, phone or email, from them
on the subject of getting in to look at the machine in person.

Until any of that happens, nothing will happen, unfortunately. I
apologize to everyone for the lengthy hiatus, but that's how it goes
with hardware problems sometimes.

Regards,
-scott
