The first thing to test is if the port is open between client and server.

From the client, in a DOS box (asuming you are on a PC)

Telnet ServerHostName   PortYouAreTunnelingThrough

If the port is blocked, it will say something like Connect Failed.

If it is open, you will get garbage characters echoed back at you.

Best of luck.
