HI Frank,

actually the "forwarding" was working. the problem was that when Postfix 
would get a connection for a message it was rejecting "all" of the 
messages being sent to it. the only thing that allowed it to accept about 
1/2 of the messages that were coming in was to set mynetworks = 0/0. that 
is far from desireable. After talking with Pierre and Todd it would appear 
that I'm going to have to do a bit more reading, studying, and configuring 
on Postfix before this will operate correctly.

another weird thing was that I couldn't access any of the other services 
behind the firewall using the DNSable sym name, but could of course get to 
them using the IP address of the machine.

the webserver was accessible, but only the root if the server and nothing 
below the root. the only service that didn't have a problem connected to 
it during this entire test was the FTP server. both registered users as 
well as anonymous users were able to gain access to the server.
