One thing I am not good at is explaining myself clearly. I am aware that the IP addresses (10.0.0.0, as well as others) are not routable on the internet. Here is what I am trying to achive: I have 6 public addresses which need to map directly to 6 different machines behind the firewall. (bad drawing below) Public Address IPFW Private Addresses x.x.x.x -------> 10.1.1.x . . . x.x.x.x+5 -------> 10.1.1.x+5 This is how I envision this working. User attempts to connect to a machine with the Public IP address of x.x.x.x. The data is recived by my router, and re-directed to the public interface of the IPFW box. Once the data reaches the IPFW box it applies the appropriate rules and passes it off to the appropriate machine on the private interface. I hope that this explains what I am trying to do a bit better. I do have to apologize for the confusing thought-train on the previous message. Again any help with this matter would be appreciated.
