Hey all, I have sort of an odd problem.  I'm trying to use pcanywhere to
get to an external host, and while I see a lot of info about natd, I am
using ppp (yes its painful) with nat.

Here's the thing:I don't care about running a HOST behind NAT, just remote
(work-from-home), and for some reason I can connect to hosts at my ISP,
and if I have a pcanywhere connection open to hosts at my isp, I can also
connect to my job (which is not my isp), but unless I have the pcanywhere
connection open to my isp, I can't connect to any host outside the local
net.

To my knowledge (and I've examined both nets carefully) there's no
firewalls in place, I should not need to make any allowances on my nat
firewall because I'm simply running a remote, not a host.  Can anyone
offer any advice?
