>telnet 192.168.0.105 110 

shouldn't that be 192.168.1.105, not 0.105?

Hi there,

I'm trying to get the LAN reading the POP mail from an external machine via
port forwarding, but have no luck so far.

My Linux RHL7 has 2 network adapters 203.101.33.177 (eth1) extrenal and
192.168.1.105 (eth0) internal

Users on LAN have their workstations on 192.168.1.* network number. 

The POP server itselft where users have their acounts gets all mail
downloaded to it is on MAC and is on 203.101.33.9

All I need is to make users from 192.168.1.* to connect to 192.168.1.105
(Linux box internal address) and then to make linux to forward connection to
203.101.33.9 (Mac POP Server) so it's some sort of proxy.

I have tried this on Linux BOX

ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 192.168.1.105 110 -R 203.101.33.9 110

then I to telnet from my LAN

telnet 192.168.0.105 110 

and I expect to have response from MAC POP server

But it says 'Unable to connect to host"

 

What am I doing wrong? Is there any other solutions to this?

Thank you very much in advance

Arthur
