Are you connecting over http ? Normal socket connections will not cross
firewalls. They were designed to stop anything but http connections. That is
why SOAP (Simple Open Access Protocol) (new name!) was invented. Also you must
take care of the tunneling from BEHIND a firewall.  There are URL connection
API's from Sun to do it. I could send you some code snippets when you need. (I
do not have the code on this system and so I can not attach it just now, sorry.
