Error replicating data from Internet server to dial-up SQL server

I am getting an error message in replicating the data from an Internet server to the dial-up SQL server. It's configured for anonymous pull subscription, and it's getting an error message 'The process could not connect to Distributor "computername"' I enabled the publisher for anonymous subscribers. How can I overcome this problem?

Pull up SQL Server 2000 BOL. It has instructions for configuring replication through a firewall. You are getting this error because the firewall and network configuration are not correct.
