Two web servers

I have 2 web servers behind my firewall. Anyone know how to set that up. I think I can only use port forwarding for one.

The only simple way of doing this is to set the second web server on a non-standard port, and set port forwarding up on that. This is probably unsatisfactory, so I would suggest you review the reasons why you need two separate boxes to run as webservers (eg., can you 'consolidate' this to one, and use virtual hosting?).

Otherwise, you may have to look at changing your firewall to some sort of (transparent?) proxy.

Go to www.apache.org.  Look up proxypass.  You can hand off web sites to multiple servers via the one public one.
