If you have internal machines that need to get to an internal web server
then best way to do it would be to have the internal machines hit the web
server directly. Consider setting up a DNS that resolves the local address
for local machines.
Otherwise, I guess you can come up with a fancy way of routing the packets
back and forth thru the Masq engine. Your main problem here is that your
local machine (lets say 192.168.100.a) sends a packet to open a connection
on port 80 to 207.67.232.254. Now assuming that port forwarding is setup
correctly to forward that packet to the SQL Server (which I cant quite
picture how you would do), the SQL server will respond back to the client
machine directly. As a result the client machine expected to open a session
with 207.67.232.254 and instead it got a response from 192.168.100.4.

Subject: [Masq] Port forwarding
/* HINT: Search archives @ http://www.indyramp.com/masq/ before posting! */
I am IP Masquerading a office. I am portfowarding 207.67.232.254 port 80 to
and internal SQL server 192.168.100.4. This works fine for people externel
to
our office , but when one of the masqed boxes in our office trys to browes
a webpage that refrences the 207.67.232.254 port 80 it times out waiting for
a
connection. Is their some way to forward the masq box to the internal SQL
server?
my proxy has an external IP of 207.67.232.254 and an internal ip of
192.168.100.1
