I got a virus alert back from my last reply with the zip/text attachment so
I thought some may not have received it so here's a repost with the link to
the port forwarder I use.
My apologies,
Doug

Thanks, my coworkers call me "the preacher" due to my gettin' a little
wordy at times. :o)
My grandfather wrote books so I must have inherited his genes.

Sure, fairly easily. There are many utilities that will do this on varying
levels of permanence. I used a little java app from sourceforge to do it
and simply ran it in a command prompt window. You have to edit the config
file with the port you want to forward. Edit the bat file to point to your
java install path if you
need it.
Its contents are:
07/07/2005 12:35 AM 40,368 JPortForwarder . jar
02/02/2006 04:18 PM 528 ports.txt
04/04/2002 08:55 PM 817 Readme.txt
02/02/2006 04:17 PM 113 run . bat
04/10/2002 08:52 PM 207 run . bat.old
You can get it yourself from sourceforge
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jportforwarder
You can also get another one from sourceforge
http://portfwd.sourceforge.net/
You can also install a server app called LanSuite by Software 602.
http://www.software602.com/products/ls/
It has a full range of server functions that you don't need if you already
run server apps, but they can be turned off, :o) Most importantly, it also
has a port forwarding function that can be modified via gui. I'm running it
at home for my family's web/email server and it runs as a service and has so
for years with no problems.

Have fun!
