hello, quick question: i want to port forward those that enter at x:80 to
internal address y:7865, how can i do that
with iptables?

iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING 4 -i eth0 -d x -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to y  
when/how do i specify port 7865?


thank you,
tomas bonnedahl

Hi there Tomas!

 : iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING 4 -i eth0 -d x -p tcp --dport 80 \
 :   -j DNAT --to y   when/how do i specify port 7865?

This should do the trick:

  iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING 4 -i eth0 -d $PUB_IP -p tcp --dport 80 \
     -j DNAT --to-destination $PRIV_IP:7865

Check out Oskar Andreeason's tutorial on this very matter.

Ciao for now,
