Can NAT forward a port to the box in the DMZ? It's been a while, don't
remember if it can or not...ISTR that you can't - IOW, packets go to a box
because it's in the DMZ or because you have ports forwarded to the box. Not
both. I could be wrong.

Euehmm, You can have NAT and DMZ together.... NAT simply adds stuff to the
IP packet so it can be itendified when it returns to what PC it needs to
be
send within the NAT enviorment on your network behind your router.
DMZ simply makes sure that each incomming connection, which isnt requested
by any PC in the NAT network, will be send to the PC which the DMZ is
targeting.

If you are in the DMZ, it doesn't matter if NAT is on - NAT is not
between
the wan (internet) and the box in the DMZ. It's DMZ or NAT - you can't
have
both apply to one box at the same time.

NAt is still on, and the ports are limited!
