Simon,

Thanks for the reply, .. but that is not an option. The machine is behind a NAT box at a client's site, .. and I do NOT wish to take any responsibility for modifying the router configuration, .. much less do I know what router they have (only that the machine I was looking at uses NAT).

Luckily, Dave had the answer.
