There were actually 2 problems. 1) I cannot connect from the desktop machines to the NATd machine using either the private IP nor the real IP. This I have solved. I guess the problem came from the wrong routing table in the Notes server.. (however I am not allowed to change settings there, so I just moved the masquerading job to FW2, and it's working now)
2) I cannot connect from any parts of the internal network to the Notes server with the real IP. (I can connect from internal network using the private IP, so I guess it is not the same problem as you stated?) Everybody is satisfied with the current configuration, but it is really ugly to get an "invalid argument" like that. So... are there any possible solutions for this?
