No, my notebook using friend is not firewalled at home. He is, however,
firewalled at work.

The external testing system that I used is not firewalled, either, but it
works fine.

My work location -is- firewalled. FTP to the SunFreeware mirrors and
Sunsolve appears to function correctly through our corporate firewalls. FTP
does not, however, function correctly to -my- FTP server. There is only one
rule governing FTP, so it's not a matter of my FTP server hitting a
different rule than the Sun related sites.

I can't find the common threads to explain things. Hence, characterizing it
as a mind bender.
