Here is the situation and my question:
I have ssh and vnc access to my mothers iMac computer in another state. She recently purchased an airport extreme card along with an airport express. I thought that Id be able to just VNC into her box as usual to run the AX setup utility to configure her network so that she could then just plug the DSL modem into the AX and get connected.
My plan would have been fine if her computer was running OS X 10.3. She is currently only up to 10.2 and the Airport Admin utility will not run on that version. (I havent had her update her OS yet because Tiger will be coming out soon).
So I was wondering. Since I use tunnel my VNC connection using SSH could I do something similar with the airport admin utility? Is there a port, or series of ports, I can forward form my computer upon which the airport admin utility will run?
Any help would be appreciated.
