[afnog] Port forwarding using shorewall problem

[Yahaya Wara]

Dear all,

I installed shorewall firewall version 3.x on ubuntu
linux 7.X. The firewall started and running. One of my
goals is to run internet servers on my local network
with RFC-1918 private IP adddresses. Because these
computers have RFC-1918 addresses, it is not possible
for clients on the internet to connect directly to
them,i would want the clients on the internet to
address their request to the firewall who then forward
the request to the server. When my server responds,
the firewall should automatically rewrite the source
address in the response using it public routable
IP(208.78.59.98).

This is what i have in my /etc/shorewall/masq

eth0        eth1
eth0        eth1        208.78.99.98


This is what i have in my /etc/shorewall/rules


DNAT   net   loc:172.16.0.13  tcp  80 208.78.59.99
   
iam stucked any help?
