[cobalt-security] NAT Question



Hi,

I've got a Qube2 and I was wondering about using NAT.

Here is what I would like to do:

- I run Lotus Notes on a server here that is behind our firewall (the
Qube acts as our firewall)
- I would like to have my users be able to get to Notes from outside the
office, without moving the box outside the firewall.

Now forgetting a minute about the whys and hows of dealing with Notes, I
was curious about the procedure to setup NAT.

I've got a few questions:
 - would I assign another IP for this situation?
 - could I just use the same IP it's got now, and use a different port
number?
 - could I add a dns entry so I have something like notes.ceeva.com and
that sends the packet to the qube, which translates it to the internal
server?

If someone could point me to a good FAQ or HOWTO I would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.
