I've been mulling the solution to my problem over for a little while
now. Last night I pulled my ipmasq router off the network and set up
another box as the ipmasq router (486/66 w/8megs of ram). My thought was
that I'd like to have a stand alone NFS/mail/http/whatever server behind
the firewall and I could use that smaller box for the masq router.
In a short time I was able to get the new box routing and had changed
the old box (486/100 w/32megs and some 2.5gig of harddisk) to a normal
ip address for my network. Now however, I want to have the new router
forward all port 80 requests to 192.168.1.5 (the old box) that can
handle the traffic there.
I've seen some conversation about portfw vs autofw and downloaded Nigels
redir 0.7 last night. I noticed that redir only does TCP packets. I'm
wanting to run Myth games, and I'm pretty sure that those use UDP
packets, so I don't think that solution will work for me. Eventually,
I'm sure I'm going to have a whole list of ports that I'll just want
delivered to this ip or that behind the firewall, and I'm sure it'll be
mixed traffic (TCP and UDP). What is the solution of choice?
