I had a similar experience with Win98 on my LAN. I used an app called
WinRoute which uses NAT to protect the internal machines. If you want to
VNC through your firewall to a machine, you'll need to enable port
forwarding on port 590xand 580x to the IP of your internal machine on port
5900 and 5800. I'm not sure if you can do it with Microsofts ICS or not.
Also, if you just want to VNC to the firewall machine, you'll have to open
up ports 5800 and 5900 on it's public interface. By default, WinRoute
shuts down everything. So double check to make sure.
