Hi All - newbie question

I'm trying to vnc into a win2k box behind a masquerading firewall/router - a snapgear 
lite (embedded linux device) which I've set up for a small client business.  Latest 
VNC.


The following incoming ports are blocked:

20, 21, 69, 137, 139, 194, 546 currently and the server's patched up to the max 
running AV stuff and has languard's file integrity checker running on it as well as a 
couple of other bits of security software.  I'm going to setup a deny all/allow some 
policy tommorow but that's irrelevant.

No outgoing ports are blocked.

I can hit into and configure the firewall's web interface from outside.  Let's say its 
external address is 10.10.10.6  It supports port forwarding.  The internal machines 
are using private addressing - the target server is 192.168.0.1  I've set up an 
incoming forward of 10.10.10.6:5800 to 192.168.0.1:5900 (the win2k box).

I enter http://10.10.10.6:5800 and get a VNC authentication dialogue box.  Enter the 
password I set in their and eventually get:

Network Error: no route to server 10.10.10.6  So I'm guessing the problem is outgoing. 

The win2k server is on SP2 + various security patches


The routing table on the snapgear router/firewall has the following entry for their 
network:


Destination  Gateway    Genmask         Metric          Interface
192.168.0.90 0.0.0.0    255.255.255.0   0               eth0

Now intuitively I would expect the gateway to be set to 192.168.0.254  which it is on 
the win2k server.

Help!!
