Dear List!

I have the following setup:
eth0 (WAN, with multiple alias IPs), eth1 (LAN1), eth2 (LAN2), eth3 (LAN3)

I would like to setup DNAT, in order to achieve the following:
packets coming from eth0 to a certain IP and tcp port get NATed to an IP and port for a machine on one of the LAN subnets

I have read the relevant HOWTO and made the following setup:
# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.248 U 0 0 0 eth0

If I telnet 192.168.3.1 25 on the firewall, an SMTP session starts. If I telnet from outside (coming on eth0), it waits until timeout. I just can't figure out why it is not working. At last I removed all the IP aliases, and it didn't work that way either. There is nothing relevant in /var/log/syslog. I have 1 in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

Yours sincerely,
   Fülöp Balázs
