I would guess it's a small webserver listening on port 80? Then you just have to do: iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.6:80 This redirects all incoming traffic destined for port 80 on your firewall to port 80 on your internal windows-box. If you allready use port 80 on your firewall for some sort of webserver, you can assign another port. For example, you might want to redirect port 8888 to port 80 on you internal machine. Then just do: iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 8888 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.6:80 If your webcam-server doesn't listen to port 80, adapt the 192.168.1.6:n part accordingly. > I a totally n00b with compiling kernels and stuff, but if it is possible > to run a program or edit IPtables or so, please help me out, I need it > get to work for my parents :S If you are using a recent distribution you don't have to compile any kernel any more as long as you don't want bleeding-edge features. > Power2All > Holland Umh? :-) Hope that helps, Alex. -- "Mr Data, when I said 'Fire at Will', I didn't mean for you to be so literal."
