So I'm finally getting aroung to doing things the "right" way.  I am moving
my ftp service off of my firewall box to a seperate server dedicated to the
job.  I have a few questions however.

redhat 7.0

1) What code do I need to do the port forwarding -- masqadm? I forgot the
name of the forwarding deamon.

2) What rules should I set in my IPchains firewall to forward traffic to
this new box:

box ID -- 192.168.100.4
Port for FTP 1001-1009

3) can I use ports 1001-1009 without killing anything else?

4) any help on the commands would be appreciated, I will be checking the
howto, but if you want to drop some hints I'd appreciate it.

5) I was planning to NFS mount the drives for the FTP server from another
Linux box, but I'm worried that this might expose me to security
risks...comments?

Here is what I was thinking...

INTERNET <--- >Firewall <---->Internal Network
                   ^
                       |
                   |
                Port 1001
                   |
                       |
                   v
                       FTP Server

Also, most of my disk is on my firewall, so that is where I would NFS mount
from.

Thanks

Carl
