Re: Static NATting

["Greg Dickinson" <gdickinson@logistasolutions.com>]

OK - I did that (can't believe I missed that...) :-/

However, now I have something else weird happening.  I can successfully ping out to hosts that are on my "public" network (our /26 net that the ISP gives us.)  However, I can't seem to get past the router, and the tracert looks weird:

C:\>tracert -d 207.157.9.151

Tracing route to 207.157.9.151 over a maximum of 30 hops

  1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  10.227.1.1
  2     1 ms     1 ms     1 ms  10.200.227.1
  3     3 ms     3 ms     3 ms  10.1.2.41
  4     4 ms     4 ms     4 ms  207.157.9.151

I never see either interface that is in the firewall/NAT box.  It goes straight from the router that is at the core (10.1.2.41) to the "public" address on our subnet.  Weird.

I have configured the Cisco router to direct all the traffic from the affected /24 subnet to the linux box, and I am trying to do a 1-to-1 NAT so we can do things like Terminal Services, etc. across the internet.  I am using the following commands (the addresses are for my PC)

Change the -s to -d on the PREROUTING rule.

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 207.157.9.X -j DNAT --to 10.227.101.4
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.227.101.4 -j SNAT --to 207.157.9.X
