How can I publish an RSS feed from within a company intranet?

I've set up an in-house blog on my company's intranet. The blog's pages are accessbile to employees on the company network or over our VPN at a certain address - say http://10.0.1.127/myblog/index.php





I'm looking for a feed reader that will access the RSS feeds generated by the blog pages - these are also hosted at a similar address, say http://10.0.1.127/myblog/index.php?feed=...





So far I've tried Google Reader (a web-based service), rssfwd (an RSS to email service) and Illumio (a desktop-based reader). Obviously Google and rssfwd aren't able to get to the feeds directly from their own servers, but I would have thought that the desktop-based reader ought to be able to do this, as my machine is logged onto the company network.





So, can anyone suggest either:


1) a desktop- or web-based feed reader that is likely to be able to reach these feeds, or


2) an elegant workaround (using an aggregator, having the blog publish feeds to a public server instead, etc.)





Thanks in advance,

No need for a third-party, why don't you just open this page up on a public ip/domain?





e.g.


http://www.mycompany.com/rss/myblog/inde...





You just configure your webserver to do this
