Probably not. I have the same situation at my work. Corporations tend to have what's called "packet sniffers" installed. They can determine what type of data is being sent and then either block it or allow it through.
Until a few months ago people could VPN or VNC between home and work. But something "bad" happened and it is all blocked now. Does your work use Wedsence? Mine does. I think they have it setup to look for an IP address with a port added to it and, when found, it stops the packet. So when you enter http://123.123.123.123:5800, Websence sees the port address and just stops the packet from ever going out. Just in case Wedsence was set to block only certain ports, I tried various ports in the 9000, 21000 and 30000 range with no luck. I'm assuming Websence is the culprit in my case, but I honestly don't know. Robert --- "Jimmy E.
