IPPORTFW vs MFW
Hi there
I'm wanting to setup port forwarding of some sort on my Debian firewall box.
Looking at the IP_masquerade HOWTO it talks about IPPORTFW and MFW. Which of
these is better (?) to use? The HOWTO has a bit of info on IPPORTFW but none on
MFW - is there any examples/howto's of MFW around?
I am wanting to forward port 6200 to an internal server. My system setup is as
follows:
Internet
|
| (fixed IP address)
+--------+
| Router |
+--------+
| (192.168.128.50)
|
| (192.168.128.1)
+----------------------------------+
| Debian firewall / masquerade box |
+----------------------------------+
| (192.168.123.5)
|
| (192.168.123.1)
+---------------------+
| Server for port 6200|
+---------------------+
Thanks
