IPTables and Port Forwarding? 41
$hy_guy asks: "I have
been totally striking out finding some info on how to do port forwarding in
Linux. I am currently running Mandrake 8.1 as my router and i would like
to forward a particular port to another machine on my LAN. I'm pretty
sure I have to use iptables but I have been very unsuccesful at the proper
syntax. I have scoured through Google and I have not really found any
useful info. I would appreciate just a link or something to point me the
correct direction. Thanks for the help" I know many of you may think this
is an FAQ, but it seems that IPTables confuses many people as this is not
the first time this question has hit the bin. If someone has a good general
reference on the use of IPTables, please share.

It's a totally object based graphical tool for building a firewall. You can just drag and drop "services" (ports) to create port mappings, drap and drop machines, other firewalls, networks, etc to determin who gets to do what.
Has a nice little druid in it to get you a working setup that you can modify to better suit your needs.
Really. Check it out.
