So, nobody on the list knows if this is even possible?
I've been running all different sorts of combinations and I can't get it
to work.
Surely this is something not entirely out of the ordinary. I can't
imagine having to build another firewall box just to add another IP and
rules only for an alias.

Hi all. I'm new to the list but not to netfiler.
I have a firewall built, with eth5 on the internet. It accepts
connections on a few ports from allowed hosts and forwards them to boxes
in the DMZ. It works great.
I have another client that wants a box configured similarly. I would
like to add another internet ip as eth5:1 and then forward certain ports
on that new IP to a different box in the DMZ.
using -i eth5:1 doesn't work.
Is this even possible? I've been up and down the man page and I can't
seem to figure out a way to differentiate the alias from the "normal"
ip. I guess I could add another network card and duplicate the scripts
but this seems so wasteful to me.
Hoping someone can help me with this!
thanks
