However when I try login to the app, it just times out with various winsock 
errors on a socket open. I have called tech support, but they know nothing.

So I installed tcpdump on the gateway, and logged my activities but need 
help decifering the output,

The server is using port 2005. Does it matter that it's not a "well known" 
port?

I'm not sure if the ip masquerading is not setup properly, or if the routes 
are not correct, or if this app is using a unsupported protocol? My 
succesfull ping, telnet and ftp lead me to believe the gateway is configured 
properly.

Please let me know if I can provide more info. I am desperate to get this 
setup working. I have included additional info below

tia
charles

additional info:
install added service ih2000 	2005/tcp to the services file
It is using sql/net oracle7. I believe this si just straight tcp/ip
server is aix v4

Here is the tcpdump output,  (tcpdump -i ppp0 -l -n > /tmp/tcpdump.out)
first showing a successful ping, telnet and ftp, then the failed attempt to 
use the client, followed by a successful ping. Ip's disguised to protect the 
innocent
