You should be able to do that, but it is a matter of configuring your Linux server.  Therefore, asking in the Mac forum is not getting your question to the proper experts.  Try posting in the "aMule Help" forum, or on another site devoted to Linux configuration.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

What you need is a kernel with iptables-support and some configuration work...which is unfortunately a bit more complicated. (Maybe there are some easier ways to do that, but it's already some time since I used it and I cannot explain it neither without looking it up, sorry.)
Maybe you've a distribution which have a graphical interface for this, I remember Suse 9.2 including this.

Anyway, what you have to search for is NAT or masquerading. I found an explanation of the needed commands in the iptables-howto: http://www.iptables.org/documentation/HOWTO//NAT-HOWTO-5.html#ss5.1 (and following)

Hi ,
an example script for simple redirect of the three ports use aMule you find here  ;)
I remind you to activate the portforwarding edit the /etc/sysctl.conf:
Quote
Add/Uncomment the following lines:
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1

Best regards,

Truzzone  :)
