I am using SuSE 6.4 and IPChains for my Internet firewall.  I have an AS/400 behind my firewall that I would like to access over the internet.  It seems to me that the simple solution is to establish port redirection; assign a single port on the firewall to get redirected to the AS/400.  I am not familiar with how this is done.  Is this an IPChains command?  I couldn't seem to find port forwarding in the IPChains documentation.
 
Is this the generally accepted solution for this situation?  Would it be better to login to the firewall and establish a 5250 connection from there?
 
All help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
~Dale
