Well I was using a Linux 6.0 box, and was able to use EASYFW and RINETD , it
worked smooth.... only issue is, you can not re-direct FTP ports with RINETD
(software issue) .. I had tried NETMAX's FIREWALL/ROUTER but IP address kept
changing... so now I am stuck using NAT32 (on a WINBLOWS machine) , but it
works.. and works well..
