If yes , then how? Huh, I'm sorry yes you need a second rule. So the rules are: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -j DNAT -p tcp --dport 8080 --to a.b.c.d:8181 iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j SNAT -s local_ip/local_net --to 192.168.1.250 echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_foward The Source NAT(SNAT) rule is needed, cause otherwise the packaets that reach a.b.c.d will be comming from the ip of the local client not 192.168.1.250 and so 192.168.1.250 will never receive the replies from a.b.c.d. Since the packets reach the client directly from a.b.c.d, the client will simply disregard them and will wait for packets comming from .1.250. So the SNAT rule changes the SOURCE IP of the packets to 1.250 so a.b.c.d will return the answares to the right source.
