port forwarding

jeempc · 02-01-2004, 11:07 AM

Hello all. I use slackware 9.1 and am using rc.firewall as my firewall script.
I would like to open up port so I can host a enemy-territory server.
My gateway machine is 192.168.1.1. The game server is 192.168.1.23.
How can I add a rule to forward the game port to my server?
Thanks
Jeem

I forgot to say that the server is a Windows machine if that matters.
