Nelson:

I have double-checked for firewall issues here. Finding none, I have opened 
a ticket with our campus networking group. They may need additional 
information or diagnostics to be performed from your host in order to 
diagnose this further.

If they do, I will put them in direct contact with you.

Cheers, Stephen
