Perhaps the server is hiding behind a firewall and the IP address given is only valid on the inside? Network address translation (NAT) is a common enough scenario and your company might be using such a scheme. If that is so, then yes, they will have to somehow "announce" the presence of the server. I'm not an expert with such setups but their router / firewall / gateway has to be configured to allow this info to propagate. Hope this helps! -- Tim Lapin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
