since most likely, the machines on the private IP's are a LAN which are sharing an internet connection. so whatever is doing that sharing (windows ICS, linux box..) can be replaced by the el-cheapo Linksys as well.

Why bend over backwards and make the connection initiated by the server?
When would it know to connect? Too much mess there. Far, far easier
to set up a VPN tunnel between the PC that needs access to connect to
the private network where the accessed machine lives. A VPN would solve
the problem in a snap. The remote machine would look from the point of
view of every machine present in the internal network as though it were
actually there, even though it's actually communicating with the system
by means of an encrypted link.
