Time Capsule Port Forwarding?

Hi-

I am trying to enable ssh from outside of my LAN and don't know how to setup port forwarding on my Time Capsule.

Is there a how-to on setting up ssh via port 22 for Time Capsule?

Thanks!

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.1)

Here are the basic steps:

1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the host device.
Internet > DHCP tab
o On the DHCP tab, click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
o Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
o Reserve address by: MAC Address
o Click Continue.
o MAC Address: <enter the MAC (what Apple calls Ethernet ID if you are using wired or AirPort ID if wireless) hardware address of the host computer>
o IPv4 Address: <enter the desired IP address>
o Click Done.

2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
Advanced > Port Mapping tab
o Click the "+" (Add) button
o Service: Remote Login - SSH
o Public TCP Port(s): 22
o Private IP Address: <enter the IP address of the host server>
o Private TCP Port(s): 22
o Click "Continue"

I am trying to do something similar. I need to connect my LG blu ray player to the TC thru ethernet. The blu ray player uses port 80 or 443. Can I follow the same instructions? What is the service I should select in the drop down for the port mapping. The blu ray interfaces with YouTube, netflix, it also goes to the can update the software for the blu-ray. Thanks for your help and sorry for intruding to your conversation - it seemed similar to my issue.
