Jumping in this thread a bit late...
It should also be pointed out that ipchains does not offer a true 1:1 NAT,
and dealing with inbound traffic to multiple servers and/or subnets can be
problematic. This problem is resolved with netfilter, which comes with the
2.4 kernel, but compared to the 2.2 kernel, BSD is still the better choice.
