I am using FM Server 8.0 to host a file at the office. I can see the file on my Power Book while I'm at the office. I have opened port 5003. However, when home, using the same Power Book get the same issue, the files no longer display. No firewall active on my Mac Power Book. Any ideas?

I assume you are on a network/domain at work?

does your company have a static ip address? and are you using that as your path?

Yes to static IP. I read old threads last night and found the answer from 2007. Basically I was trying to access the tcp of the machine hosting FM server instead of the public IP address and then allowing the 5003 port to forward e traffic. So issue solved! thanks for the response.
