THey are probably filtering certain ports. In any case, reconfigure your W3K box to listen on a different port.. Try port 80, if you aren't running any IIS services. I love using that port because all the script kiddy hackers out there think it is a web server and usually never touch it. Its a wonderful disguise for a commonly attacked service. Port 80 would definitely go through your network, because that is the port all the web browsers in your company use to connect to external web server. :) In any case, thats the quick work around, to get you up and running. It also just came to me, you could RDP into your home XP box, and then RDP into your server from that box. This is how I usually set things up.. That way there is only one entry point into the network, and from there you connect to the other machines.
