 On most firewalls some sort of proxy server or special application is
 required to run mosaic or xarchie through the firewall.  Or you have to
 log onto the firewall to get out.

 However, we carry the JANUS Firewall Server which, due to a built in proxy
 service, is transparent to your internal network so mosaic and all your
 other networking software is unnaffected.
