There are many workarounds. I personally prefer ssh port forwarding. Something
like:

mandrake$ ssh -g -f -L 80:hpworkstation:80 -l somelogin sleep 20000

Another way is to download redir from freshmeat. Use it as:

redir --lport 80 --caddr hpworkstation --cport 80

You can also use a proxy server like squid in HTTP acceleration mode on your
mandrake machine to access the webserver on the hp workstation.
