I started a new service provider that allows my corporate
VPN to connect to my company. Once inside the VPN, I
cannot connect Outlook to the Exchange server. I can
resolve teh Exchange servers IP address, but Outlook will
not complete the connection although it does try. The
Linksys is a BEFSX41, and is NAT'ing the PC to a private
address 198.168.x.y. When I connect directly to the DSL
modem within the VPN things work fine. What setting can be
chnaged in the router/firewall to enusre that the RPC
calls get routed properly.

Please advise.
