I believe it's not called NAT but static (in cisco pix terms atleast) if you want one external IP to forward all traffic to an internal IP. The meaning is a rule in the firewall that passes all requests (no matter what port) to a certain address to another, behind the firewall.
Not sure this would solve anything for you though. Maybe you could set up a virtual interface that thinks it owns that IP but force the machine not to route to it.. don't know.. just a thought.. don't know if that would work though. // Daniel That which is overdesigned, too highly specific, anticipates outcome; the anticipation of outcome guarantees, if not failure, the abcense of grace. - Willam Gibson -----Original Message----- From: Alex Lane [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: den 15 oktober 2001 15:27 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlds] workaround for HLDS Firewall / IP issue - any suggestions appreciated Ok I think I am doing that and it allows people to connect to the server on a port or range of ports but the server still starts and sees that the physical connection on the HLDS is say 172.16.0.19 and it will publish that IP address to the master list, not the public IP address of 144.23.x.x. The +ip argument promises to do this as far as I interpret the documentation but it turned out that the +ip command will not blindly publish whatever IP address you specify but it will only publish an IP that is physically on the HLDS machine. This is a security feature documented in a paper written by Yahn Bernier sometime ago. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Gilbert, Doug Sent: Monday, October 15, 2001 11:15 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [hlds] workaround for HLDS Firewall / IP issue - any suggestions appreciated You don't need to use the +IP command. On your firewall you need to have a NAT translation setup to translate the internal address to the external address.
