As far as I know one  machine on Internet should _never_ have to use a
routing host to reach another host on Internet, as long as things are
working correctly. 

However, when things are not working correctly, it's somewhat easier to 
figure out why and to suggest corrective action if specific details are 
available.  I think that this posting is too vague to permit informed 
comment.
