inbound port mapping

[peterve]

Hi,

I have a cable connection to the internet and I want to host a website on a server in my LAN

I've set up NAT (and the webproxy service / firewall from ISA server) to allow my clients access to the internet

The website is running on port 8095

I want to map TCP port 8095 from the external NIC on my firewall server to the server in my LAN (also port 8090), so I've selected the external NIC in RRAS and added a port mapping from
TCP 8095
to
192.168.0.1 on port 8095

However, it doesn't work
(I don't think it is a firewall issue because there is a rule that allows all traffic on all cards, in both directions on port 8095, and besides, I even tried it when the firewall service shut down)

Is there anybody who has experience with this ?
Any thoughts, ideas, tips, ... ?? I have not failed, I just found 10000 ways that don't work

Because my cable provider only allows outbound traffic through a proxy server, I had to create a ISA route so all outbound traffic goes to a proxy server.
Because of that, I'm having problems publishing internal servers with ISA
That is the reason I was looking for another solution to map ports... I thought NAT could do it but it doesn't work as well

I used to do this using Wingate, but my version doesn't work well under Windows 2000, and I already spent to much money on software lately so I won't buy a new version of Wingate...

Other ideas ? Is there a freeware tool that can handle inbound port mapping, and works well under Windows 2000 ? I have not failed, I just found 10000 ways that don't work
