Can you set up some sort of port forwarding on the mini? In Ye Olden Days
you'd do it with iptables or ipchains, IIRC, but I don't know about this?

This any use?

Excuse my ignorance - but what's a DS ??

How does the DS connect to the Airport? by wire or by ethernet cable?

Where is the DHCP server in your system?

Why does the Mac Mini use the address 10.0.2.1? Surely it should be using
192.168.0.11? It should therefore issue an address in the subnet
192.168.0.0 to the DS?

If the Mac Mini really does have two IP addresses on different subnets then
you will have to route between them. Would be much better to have a
wireless router that all the clients connect to ...

Could it be a Nintendo DS?

My guess is that trying to share ftp is not going to work because ftp
uses an extra port for its data connection. (ftp is a stupid protocol).

Do any other protocols work to the "DS"?

Yes.

It's Apple's internet connection sharing, so it's the mini.

It's using both.

No, that's not how the connection sharing works - the mini acts as a
router between the devices it's sharing to and the network it's sat on.

It should do, assuming the mini can port-forward.

No. Well, none that achieve what he's after. It's common practice to
send software to the DS via FTP, if you're into homebrew and hacking and
that sort of thing.

I'm not sure it forwards all ports by default. Dunno though.

What about using passive ftp?
