Tell me if we're talking about the same thing (TCP mapping aka port 
mapping)
Case A
Suppose I have several computer on my lan and they want to access a 
service through a proxy. I establish a connection between the local 
port of my proxy and the remote port to the standard port for that 
service. then I set the remote IP for that port to the IP for that 
service. BTW what happen if I would like to access the same service 
on different servers (news servers for example).
Case B
I want to make visible to the Internet some services that are on my 
LAN (web camera). I set the local port to the port of my service and 
I set the remote port and IP to the machine is running that server.
Does this work?

And if I want to let people access directly to some machine on my 
LAN through their IP???
