The term "IP forwarding" is insufficent to describe what you want to do.
Ipportfw is used to forward connections from the external net, into your
private LAN. If you want to do this, that's what you need. However,
you need the "ipmasqadm" package instead of the "ip-subs" package that
you will see described in documentation.
If you only want to forward connections from your private LAN to an
external network, standard IP masquerading will do that, without port-
forwarding.
