I've just recently reconfiged roaring penguin and left the firewall option as NONE...will this not allow me to then forward port 80 from the linux box back to my windows server as the windows server is behind the linux box???
 
You can configure iptables rule to forward port 80 to your windows.If you never configure any iptables on your linux server......:)Is it your question?
 
Ady, do u know how to configure as what you said? configure iptables to forward port 80 (www) to internal web server.

My original question posted at "thread54-665879"
 
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth? -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination windowserver:80

That's all there is to it.
