I opened TCP ports 4125, 443, and 444. I get the authentication box. But after entering user name and password, it goes to msn live search.

Do you have a route to the location your trying to reach, do you have to be vpn to the network so that it can authen you, how is the authen working on share point AD?

I am trying to connect through the server's public IP. It works inside the firewall. i.e. Inside the firewall, I can connect and authenticate. Outside the firewall, I can connect, but not authenticate. I am using Windows authentication. And we are not running AD. Strictly workgroups.

Ok so how is the auth working within the firewall this will give me more information to work on so i now how its auth inside so i can understand how it will auth outside

Not sure I understand the question. Sharepoint uses windows authentication. When I connect to the server, the windows authentication box pops up. I use my Windows user name (which is also set up as a user in sharepoint) and my windows password.

so you are using AD then ( Active Directory )ok i want you to try this, if you can vpn to your network from outside ie like a home worker the company i use to work for used citrix. I want you to vpn to the network login then from your desktop try and access sharepoint the reason you it int working from outside is because it cant auth you thust bring you to msn search page.
