Default SlingBox Question

Bit of a special case, and wondering if I can get some help here.

We have a special case at work where we have a central Sonicwall that hands out 10.xxx.xxx.xxx addresses, and another Sonicwall that obtains a 10.xxx.xxx.xxx address from the original Sonicwall, and then hands out 192.xxx.xxx.xxx addresses. Don't ask why.

The Slingbox is located behind the 2nd Sonicwall, and is assigned a 192.168.200.110 address. When I'm on a computer with an address in the 192 subnet, everything works fine.

Question is, I'm usually on a computer that obtains an IP from the 1st Sonicwall, IP is 10.4.23.222 and I'm wondering how I go about setting it up so that I can watch the Slingbox without having to be on the same 192.xxx.xxx.xxx subnet as the Sonicwall is on.

The IP of the 2nd Sonicwall is 10.4.23.110, so I forwarded port 5001 for both TCP and UDP on that Sonicwall. I setup the Slingbox while I was on the 192.xxx.xxx.xxx subnet, and everything works fine, but when I go to the 10.xxx.xxx.xxx subnet, and try to connect to the SlingBox is says connection failed.

My thinking is that it is trying to connect to that Slingbox through the internet when I try to watch it on the 10. subnet, and that is blocked on our network.

How do I make it so that it connects to properly? I'm a bit lost here.
