I do not agree.

There is a difference between port redirection and IP forwarding. In 
the first case you redirect a port to another on the same IP adress 
(there is no routing decision necessary), in the latter you want to 
forward incoming traffic to the same port on a different machine - so 
you have to route packets.

P.S.: It is really annoying that you write your answer (to what? My 
mail? Scott's?) on the top. There's no way for others to find out to 
what line of my/Scott's mail your answer is related to.
