Problems with XP firewall & RealVNC

I've set up an incoming connection on one XP Professional computer in an office of 10 XP Professional computers. From outside the office, when I establish a connection with the 1st computer I can connect to it with RealVNC without any problems.
Here's the problem: I cannot connect to the other computers with RealVNC when the XP firewall is on on that 1st computer, the one that has the incoming connection. When the XP firewall is off on that computer I can connect to all the other computers with RealVNC. I don't understand what the problem is since ICF doesn't block outgoing connections.
How can I configure the firewall on that 1st computer so it's on but allows me to use RealVNC on all the other computers.
