Topic: How do I open a port and direct it to internal machine?

[Dave Scarbrough]

Need to open 7770 and 548 for Real Server and AppleShareIP, both machines are on 192.168.1.0 internal network...  Very impressed so far with e-smith, but still not quite as easy as a little Netgear router...  Any advice?  I know IPChains is somehow involved, but I'm at a loss as to where to begin...

Search for "port forwarding" in these boards.
