Firewall experts,
Despite searching all of the list archives, I couldn't come up with a possible
solution to this issue.
What I would like to do is accept connections from my external interface on
port 9090 and redirect them to port 80. I do not want connections to port 80
accepted from outside at all.
I've read the HOWTOs and the tutorials and I was satisfied that this recipe
might work:
$IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 9090 \
-j REDIRECT --to-ports 80
But alas, it doesn't seem to. Then it occurred to me that since the default
target of my INPUT chain is REJECT, that I might need to explicitly accept the
packets that are (now) destined for port 80. But this produces another problem,
which is that I don't want to accept packets inbound on port 80, I only want to
accept the ones that have been redirected to port 80.
How can I set this up? Thanks a lot!
