hi, i would like to access the dbase-server (192.168.1.5) from home (xxx.xxx.xxx.104). i changed the firewall2-rule, so the firewall is now forwarding my request with this ip to the db-machine. the result is, that the firewall has now forwarding ALL web requests (192.168.1.6) to the db machine

Rule 14.

FW_FORWARD_MASQ="xxx.xxx.xxx.104,192.168.1.5,tcp,80 0/0,192.168.1.6,tcp,80"

what is wrong with this rule ?

I guess 2 different reverse masquerading rules on the same port are difficult to fix. I wonder if it will work to redirect port 8080 on the fw to 80 on the dbase-server? FW_FORWARD_MASQ="xxx.xxx.xxx.104/32,192.168.1.5,tcp,8080,80 0/0,192.168.1.6,tcp,80" You will need to point your home browser to port 8080 dproc
