Give us some details dude.

What socket number are you trying to connect on. It may be intercepted by other protocol daemons eg. SMTP etc., or may be rejected by firewall if > 1000 (nonsecure socket numbers). Antivirus software also blocks certain sockets because of the threat of trojan software that is floating around like Back Orifice.
And you better not be using 139 either.

Sorry I can't be of anymore help,
BigBird.

Well, I tried with many boards from upper 5000.

The boards at the Firewall are opened upper 5000....
No kind of Antivirus is used at the Proxy or
the Dial-up...

Hope that helps....
