Hi, Elvis,
There's a very similar posting in this forum right now -- look at the thread
named "Probe Abandoned". Essentially,
1. Check DNS. Make sure the client resolves (forward and backward) from the
server and vice-versa.
2. Even if DNS seems okay, try entering the client in the server's hosts
file and vice-versa.
3. If that doesn't work, it's most likely due to a firewall between your
server and the client. Check your firewall settings.
Thanks to Anders Wickstrom and Fazil Saiyed, whose responses I paraphrased.
