Hi,
I'm not sure I understand your question. As I read it, you have 3 boxes, 2 
acting as web servers and 1 as a firewall. They are connected via a hub. It 
looks like the fw has at least 2 nics, one for the internet and one for the 
dmz (web server area), and probably a 3rd for internal LAN. I am presuming a 
recent release of RH (say 8 or newer)

You can add the static IP to the external ethernet by creating a "eth0:1" (not 
eth0:0). To do that manually, cp your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/eth0 to 
eth0:1. The edit the IP address and hard link it into 
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0:1 
and 
/etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0:1

Your postrouting should show something in the way (all one line):
$IPTABLES -A POSTROUTING -t nat -p tcp -o $EXT_IF -s $WEB_SERVER_1 -j SNAT 
--to-source  $EXT_IP_1

$IPTABLES -A POSTROUTING -t nat -p tcp -o $EXT_IF -s $WEB_SERVER_2 -j SNAT 
--to-source  $EXT_IP_2

Hope that helps.
