In reality, the firewall may be making the connection to the internal
server... and not the external machine.  Especially if the internal
server is on a 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x network and you are connecting
via NAT.  If that is the case, the external machine is connecting to the
firewall and the firewall is connecting to the internal server.
