James, you don't say if you need to forward one port or all ports to that single
machine. There is no way to forward from a single port on the firewall to *all* ports
on the target host. You can, however, forward individual ports: say from port 8000 on
the firewall to port 80 on the target host.
I did this successfully providing external SSH access to a collection of hosts on a
private network. However for this to work, the hosts on the private net also need to
be doing SNAT back out through the firewall.
