Thanks for your advice.  We've isolated the problem further and see that the
TCP connections are being blocked by our Cisco ASA firewall because there is
no established connection in the firewall (it was established with the
firewall in the other data center).  I'm looking for a way to disable this
feature in the Cisco ASA but so far I can't find one.
