I think I've got this figured out, but I figured I'd get some input.  I 
have a client who has Comcast business high speed.  We need to forward 
port 9000 to a particular computer.  I've gotten to the point that I've 
turned off the firewall on the comcast modem/router, forwarded the port 
to the IP of a connected laptop.  The laptop is running Linux and no 
firewall.  Still can not see port 9000.

I'm telling Comcast it's something on their end.  Am I missing 
something?  Tried this with a Windows computer the same network (no 
firewall either), still no go.

I was able to successfully forward port 22 to the laptop, but not 9000.

Anyone?
