Please help for I am very frustated with this problem.

Your question is a bit confusing (for even me) you say you set up a ADSL modem+router +firewall on a client by this I think you mean you installed a PCI/USB modem on PC that's part of a win2003 domain, and then activated internet sharing thus esentaily tuning the computer into a router of some kind and then a firewall, now you didn't say what kind of firewall it is, if I new I could probably solve your problem emidiatly (I mean is it a normal firewall like ZA or is it a firewall + internet filter to block websites that contain stuff like porn) but you say the internet works fine but your having roblems connecting to the shard folder that you maped as a network drive, hmm.. it could be posibel that you didn't configur the firewall correctly and so as well as blocking file sharing over the internet it's also blocking file sharing over the LAN, or it could be that when you were configuring the firewall you didn't set the LAN as the "Trusted" (as ZA puts it) area so the firewall alows file sharing. If this doesn't help please tell me what firewall you are using and then I can help more.
