i've tried several times, using multiple different rules i've found from different sites, and i still can't get port forwarding working. does anyone have working rules they could send me? i'm trying to forward packets from my isp to port 2222 to an internal ip (i use nat) and port 22. any help is much appreciated! this has been driving me crazy. 8) -- Tom Vier <tmv@comcast.net> DSA Key ID 0x15741ECE
