I've got a firewall setup using natd and ipfw. It's working fine, but I 
want to open a port and redirect it to the telnet port on a solaris 2.6 
machine inside my firewall. I have the following line in my rc.conf 
file:
natd_flags="-l -redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.5:telnet 6666"

192.168.0.5 being the solaris box.
When I telnet to the firewall box at port 6666, it just sits there, then 
times out.

I can telnet to the solaris box from inside the firewall, and I can set 
up a redirect to the ftp port on a windows box, and it works fine:

natd_flags="-l -redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.4:ftp 7777"

Why would it time out like that on the solaris box? 

Drew
