snat and narc

Hi I have a question regarding SNAT and narc


Basically, our webserver resides at 192.168.1.x on the LAN. To the outside world it is at xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx(this is actually our firewall that forwards traffic through to the webserver on the LAN at 192.168.1.x)
So, users outside the LAN just point their browsers at xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.

In order to allow this we have a rule like:

iptables -t nat -p tcp -d xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.x

Pointing the browser to xxx.xxx.xxx won't work for users on the LAN. For these people, i need something like:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp -s 192.168.1.0/24 -d xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx --dport 80 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.1.Y
(192.168.1.Y is the internal LAN address of the firewall)

I have put this last rule in the narc-custom file but it doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Rich
