i got my board up but people cant telnet in, works fine for both local computers using the dns addy but other people cant telnet in, any idea anyone? I know they're running a firewall but im not sure if they block ports, so what can i do if they do?

change your dns ip to the ip of your internet connection... not of your local ip address to your local network...

where is this firewall you speak of? Is it your own firewall, the school's or your ISP's?
