rinetd would work if you are just looking to provide WWW services that are
hosted on another machine. Fancier things might be a problem with that
solution.
If you can get multiple IP Addresses from your ISP you can have your
"firewall" handle connections to an internal machine but still "hide" the
internal addresses of those machines. You would basially "route" packet
bound to an address to another machine changing its address with NAT.
But this all hinges on you being able to get multiple IP addresses from your
ISP.
