Title: Forward local http port?
Post by: Phil Hyde on July 22, 2002, 08:20:46 AM

I have my apache server listening on port 8018 because Roadrunner blocks port 80.  As a result, I have to type www.mydomain.com:8018 locally (or 192.168.x.x:8018) to see my site.  

Is there any way to forward or re-direct local ports (perhaps on client PC's?) so that I don't need the :8018?  Perhaps what I want to do is re-direct port 80 on my server?

thanks!

/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 80 -R 8018

I'm pretty sure that should do it, if not I've got a separate binary that will support and handle TCP redirection.

Hope this helped,
Nathan

Oops, ipmasqadm is in /usr/sbin, not /bin.

/usr/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw

This is what get.  Any ideas?

[root@webserver root]# /usr/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 80 -R
8018
portfw: illegal local address/port specified

You must specify a Local and Remote IP in addition to the port numbers.

Good luck,
