This worked just fine from both a local Linux and Solaris box:
ssh -g -L 3689:homemac:3689 me@homemac
Then point the workmac -> daap://worklinux
The trick is, you can't set up the SSH tunnel *from* the Mac itself, because iTunes doesn't like connecting to localhost or even 127.0.0.1 (or maybe it was ports other than 3689).
Yah, seems that Tridge and his pals were the original Tivo hackers. They did amazing stuff - replacing NTSC tuners with PAL tuners, reverse-engineering the diagnostic edge-connector and getting an ISA 10MB card to work on it.
It's also all pretty hairy stuff. Decendants of Tridge and co. have since released a 100MB card that plugs *directly* into the TiVo. It's pretty sweet, and doesn't require an EE degree to build.
However your in-laws would still have the problem of the PAL tuner and the guide data.
Tridge has a palkit that is supposed to help you replace the tuner.
Funny you should mention GameBoy Tetris and Woz. i live in Sunnyvale and go to a lot of shows at the nearby Mountain View Shoreline Amphitheater.
Woz has box seats there (i believe he was one of the early investors in the Amphitheater, maybe back in the days of the US Festivals?). [They're mostly owned by Valley companies. The placard on his box just says "Woz". Too cool.:-} ( Box Seat #17 if you care to look.)]
Anyhoo, a co-worker said that she had often seen him there at Lilith Fair, and that during the slow moments in the show, he would be playing Tetris with a friend of his, the two Gameboys linked together.
A few months later, at the Bridge School Benefit, he actually was down in the seats near us to get a closer look at/listen to Fastball, and then the Barenaked Ladies. Of course i had to have my friend pass Pilot to him and got him to autograph it.

(Lots of other goodies there too.)
But as for the guide data -- maybe you could beg him? Or have your in-laws deliver a pizza? (Old Samba joke.)
