Situation in a nutshell:

Production  and test databases are on two separate systems inside the
firewall.  The web server is at an ISP, outside the firewall.

The firewall sends all data coming from the ISP, port 5432 to a specific IP
address inside the firewall: port 5432, which is the production serve.

Test transactions need to go to the other server, which has to be the same
IP address (the address of the firewall), so it needs to be a different
port, but I'm not sure if the port translator in the firewall will do any
better at getting a response  that than a port translator on the test server
does.

However, I also need the test database responding to requests on port 5432.

Your firewall can probably redirect firewallhost:5431 to
insidehost:5432.  If not, you could use something like simpleproxy on
insidehost to do what you want.
