In response to this note I received the following replies:
Gitano Provided two ref links and suggested that I needed to do port forwarding. I read the links and see below for the ports.
Sustain-Ability replied suggesting I avoid wireless, read the notes on TOR for windows, check that my Mac wasn't sleeping, and consider running on a dedicated machine.
Andrew Suggested checking port configuration and asked if Little Snitch needs to be configured for inbound comm. Little Snitch only controls outbound comm. See below for ports
Scott asked if my router had an RDR to send packets to 10.0.1.3 (host machine) I equate RDR with port forwarding ... maybe that's not correct, anyway see below for ports
Thanks to all who responded.
The only change I made to the setup above is to uncheck Auto config because that didn't appear to work.
Here's what I did about ports:- Opened Airport Utility->Advanced->Port Mapping
- Using the Port Mapping Setup Assistant I set a configuration as follows:
-- Public TCP ports 9001, 9030
-- Private IP address 10.0.1.3 (host machine)
-- Private TCP ports 9001, 9030
- I think we're talking TCP here so did not configure UDP
- The Setup Assistant also has a pulldown for "Choose a Service" the choices are Personal File Sharing, Windows Sharing, Personal Web Sharing, Remote Login - SSH, FTP Access, Apple Remote Desktop, Remote Apple Events, Printer Sharing, 5 flavors of email, Quick Time Streaming Server, and Jabber. None of the service choices seemed appropriate so I left this choice blank. This may have been a mistake but the configuration was accepted and loaded.
Still unsuccessful, now the log looks like this:

Obviously I'm not a networking/router expert ... any further suggestions?
TIA
