Changing the registry key for NAT cleared up the gray with ? problem on remote ( they were using a dsl router that was performing NAT) but still have problem if remote client starts the conversation. If I initiate the conversation from within the firewall to an outside client everything works great. But if the outside client initiates the conversation then their traffic is not echoed back to them, nor can I reach them with a reply. I, however, can see their traffic on my screen.
