Hello: I changed my rules to these: /sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d $WIN_EXTERNAL_IP -j DNAT --to $WIN_INTERNAL_IP /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s $WIN_INTERNAL_IP -j SNAT --to $WIN_EXTERNAL_IP And I am still not seeing anything log on the firewall log and the connection is not working. Any ideas? Thanks, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, (281)846-8957, www.JAMMConsulting.com Will your e-commerce site go offline if you have a DB server failure, fiber cut, flood, fire, or other disaster?
