Background: our server was set up by someone who no longer works here.
We've been using ip masquerading to provide access from several machines
to the net with no trouble. I know enough about Linux to be dangerous,
but I'm most definitely not a guru.

We've just installed a new server behind our Linux firewall. It's
running one special protocol that uses one port. I'd like to make it
available so that someone from outside can get to that machine.

I'd like to have all the packets sent to our IP address that use a
specific port, say 2222, get forwarded to 192.168.1.99, still using the
same port.

I've been through the man pages for ipfwadm and ipfw, and a good chunk
of the archives for this list. One of those messages suggested ipautofw,
but we don't have the man page and the -? help isn't enough to clue me
in. I can't find any trace of ipportfw on our system.

Can someone please tell me what I need to tell either ipfwadm or
ipautofw to make this happen?

Thanks a lot.
