2 things.
If you don't need/want the firewall of A, why not plug the DSL
into the (or a) hub, exposing both machines to the net? I only have 1 IP,
so I have not tried this, but I'm pretty sure this will work just fine.
Also, if you don't need access to mysql from the outside, just use a
private IP, or if you don't need mysql on both machines, forward those
ports to the internal machine so it is visible from the outside, but again
just use a private IP. I'd save those IPs for direct access to the net.
I am interested in hearing someone explain how to do what you are asking,
or even debating whether or not this is even useful. The only thing I can
think of is having them all protected by the one firewall.
