FWIW, if you just want to forward a port you can run:

    natpmpc -a 9077 9000 tcp 36000

which will forward 9077 to 9000 for 3600 seconds.

Mac user (or at least Airport Express)? NAT-PMP is a competitor to uPNP which is more likely to be implemented on a consumer grade router.

It looks like the upnpc and natpmpc apps are in the same package though.

Yeah, I came across `natpmpc` when I discovered the Airport Express at the office does not support uPNP. Our new Asus N66U supports NAT-PMP so I thought maybe it was more common these days.
