hi
Here's my problem:
I have a Apache / mysql server working on a Redhat 9 computer. Internet is avaible in this network from a Xp pro machine. What I want to do is to make the web services avaible anywhere in the web using my public IP adress... To say it differently, i would like my xp pc to route http request to my linux server.
Someone can help me ?

You'd have to configure your XP box as a router to do that, and I'm not entirely sure it has that capability. Would it be possible to use your Linux box as your firewall/router/gateway? You could use iptables to handle the routing and the firewall rules, including NAT, which might be your better option.
If you spend more on coffee than on IT security, you will be hacked.
What's more, you deserve to be hacked.

Thanks for your message but I really need to do it with my windows box. I've found the way to do this: port mapping. The software Comtun can do it perfectly. Thanks ankyway
