Nice ASCII art! ;-)  Better than I could do -- or would have the
patience to do.

Just to get you started w/o going insane on Firewall rules, I'd
suggest you upgrade your kernel to >= 2.4.0 and install the
iptables package.  You can do this with the default Debian packages,
or you can compile your own kernel.  Completely up to you.

    Packages: kernel-image-2.4.0, iptables
          or: kernel-source-2.4.2, kernel-package, build-essential

After you've installed the new kernel and iptables tool, you can set
up Destination Network Address Translation (DNAT) and Source Network
Address Translation (SNAT), otherwise refered to as port forwarding
and masquerading, respectively.

There is some documentation on how to do this in
/usr/share/doc/iptables.  You should also consult IPCHAINS-HOWTO at
http://www.linuxdoc.org and subscribe to debian-firewall email list.

Good luck!
