communication redirection

chtthies · 11-11-2003, 12:08 PM

Hi there.

I am absolutely new in this, and I have something to solve.

I have 2 Linux acting as proxy servers. Each Linux connects two different nets to Internet, so each of them have two nics, with one public and one private IP address.

The fact is: I need to redirect connection attempted to the externalIP and PORT (For example, 200.69.219.229 port 110) to an internal IP (for example 192.168.5.1 port 110)

I think I must use iptables, but MAN is a bit confusing thing to mee yet.

Thanks in advance

Christian

is the 200.69.219.229 and the 192.168.5.1 on the same machine?

We'd need a more in-depth explanation of the end or target of this exercise. It seems to me that by the OPs post, they trying to have what is known as a multihomed router or Firefall/router on both of the host machines in question however, it sounds to me like they were dealing with multiple different network segments (or subnets).
