I don't know gshield, but I think that if it supports port forwarding
it will probably support rewriting the source address too.

If you want to implement it with iptables, this page has exactly what
you need to do it:
http://kreiger.linuxgods.com/kiki/?Port+forwarding+with+netfilter

The key part in your case is "The POSTROUTING SNAT rule in the
nat-table (optional)", which is what you need to make it look like
it's coming from 10.10.0.4.

Let us know how that goes!

HTH,
Filipe
