Note that this RPM is also available on ftp.redhat.com under
contrib/libc6/i386

There is a PHP Firewall Generator, here:

http://phpfwgen.sourceforge.net/

... also available in source or RPM format.  This allows you to set up
your port forwarding (and other firewall rules) in a simple web
interface, using a ruleset not unlike other firewall ruleset generators
(eg: Firewall-1), and it will generate the ipchains/ipmasqadm script
for you.

It's much easier for beginners to do this as the script always puts the
ipchains/ipmasqadm rules around the right way.
