Dear All

I am using Win2k Adv Server as NAT server. All clients are connected to
internet through switch and Win2k Adv server machine. I have configured the
RRAS server as NAT. On NAT it is configured to forward ports redirection
onto different internal machines(like 10.32.123.4:8080; 10.32.123.5:8000)
on LAN to open the web pages but NAT server doesn't forward port redirection
at all. That's why webpages can be visited on the only NAT server on
different port using the same routable IP address(like 218.92.240.23:80 /
8080 ). I am using IIS5.0 web server ,even I had tried APACHE web server but
it doesn't work as port forwarding redirection setting is fairly simple.
What could be the problem?

Thanks a lot !
 
I would take a few steps back from the problem. If you put IIS on your Nat
box can you forward to yourself? If you are able to then delete and
re-create the forwards to your internal sites. Then from that point on from
the nat box, goto the forwarded sites directly to make sure they work.

All in this, this is a pretty basic setup so just make sure your external IP
is correct, and that the port forwards are correct as well.
