I would be interested to see if you are able to do static NAT for internal
boxes.  I haven't tried it (and now I want to go home and see if it
works), but couldn't one redirect ports from an aliased IP on the firewall
to an internal box?  IOW, I could alias a virtual IP to my public
interface and then redirect port 21 to 192.168.1.5 and port 80 to
192.168.1.10, etc. for that same public IP address.
