More than likely you'll need to setup a NAT rule in iptables. I have
the NAT being done in the router, by forwarding this range of ports
directly to this machines address. Its all setup in the router for
that.

But I also have to open up iptables a wee bit on my firewall box, with
this rule:
-----------
#!/bin/bash
BTFORWARDADDR=192.168.xx.3 PORTSTART=6881 PORTEND=6999
/sbin/iptables -A FORWARD -s $BTFORWARDADDR -p tcp --dport $PORTSTART:
$PORTEND -j ACCEPT
-----------
Where the "xx" is a real number of course.

Cheers, Gene
People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word
'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's
stupid bounce rules. I do use spamassassin too. :-)
