Note that these addresses are from two different hosts. Here's a standard recipe I've used for doing this.. # Make the firewall act as a non-caching TCP proxy. Useful for machine moves whilst DNS propogates. $IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d 194.200.209.137 -j DNAT --to 213.2.4.33 $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -p tcp --dport 80 -d 194.200.209.137 -j ACCEPT $IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d 213.2.4.33 -j SNAT --to 194.200.209.137 In this case, a web server was runnning on 194.200.209.137 that we were physically moving to a new location at 213.2.4.33... These rules were loaded onto the firewall at 194.200.209.254... Cheers, Gavin.
