Hi,
If you are using ipfwadm then look at the options as there are plenty to do forwarding.
Then, of course, you need to modify your httpd.conf on the same machine as the firewall to
act as a proxy (or actually do the redirection). This is covered fairly well at
www.apache.org in their manual on this.
Cheers!
