Moreover, I have a similar question, but in the case where we "put" the internal machine in our external network by doing:
$iptables -A FORWARD -i eth2 -p tcp -d OUTSIDE-ALIAS-FOR-INTERNAL-MACHINE -j ACCEPT $iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth2 -d OUTSIDE-ALIAS-FOR-INTERNAL-MACHINE -j DNAT --to INTERNAL-MACHINE $iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s INTERNAL-MACHINE -d ! INTERNAL-NETWORK -j SNAT --to OUTSIDE-ALIAS-FOR-INTERNAL-MACHINE Is there something extra I need to take in account?
