How do I setup access for WMI from Windows 2003 to Windows 2003 through a firewall?

I have a monitor machine (Server A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) that needs to connect to a different server (Server B yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy).
Both machines are behind firewalls. Both machines have their own public ips but use NAT to a private IP.

I need to know what ports I need open on each firewall and what settings I need to change on each server.

Thanks in advance!

I dont think WMI uses actual ports, but the the Admin Shares or else an application destined to accept WMI calls. What apps are you trying to communicate to?
