Wang,
Depending on what firewall software you are using, you should
be able to do port forwarding, i.e. when a request hits the
firewall coming from the amanda server on port 1008x udp or tcp
you would need to setup rules to forward these packets to the
port lower than 1024 on the external interfaces. If your
firewall is using linux w/ kernel 2.2.x, look at ipchains
and ipfwadm, or if its kernel 2.4.xpre then look to iptables
(Netfilter) rules. read the manpages, othewise if its another
firewall package, there should be a means to forward packets
to another machine and/or port for a service traversing the
firewall.
I hope that was what you meant.
Thanks
Phil
