Hello Remzi,
Thanks for your kind response. Yes the forwarding is enable as I have it in my script
`````````````````
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
`````````````````````
But no luck :-( here is the modified rule
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 81 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i ${LAN_IFACE} -p tcp --dport 81 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.2:8080
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED --dport 81 -i ${LAN_IFACE} -j ACCEPT

If I point at<domain-name>:81 throught internet ; the browser simply reports it can't connect to the service; though the other services running at that very server are quite accessible through internet. Have I missed something in my firewall rule ? Could anyone give any clue please ?
