[K12OSN] CigWin and K12LTSP

[Brian Chase]

I'm using it with XP Pro now and it works fine.  I'm betting it's the 
firewall that's locking you out, cause you're probably coming in on the 
WAN NIC, which by default install is firewalled to block port 177, open 
that port or better yet, just turn off the firewall if you're behind 
another firewall at your internet connection point, and you should be 
good to go.

Best of luck
