hello philip. problem with your setup is you have an application gateway as a
firewall, rather than a packet filter. anyway, what you heard about using NAT on a
separate windows box is theoretically correct. your windows box with the NAT will
have to "masquerade" your linux box, and use the MS proxy client to go through the
firewall. basically, your linux box is "doubly" firewalled. i find it a bit
disconcerting as this setup shows MS firewalling linux. usually the opposite
happens. of course, you can't have incoming connections to your linux box from the
Internet.
