[K12OSN] VNC related question-hi norbert

[norbert]

Hi Julius,

Thanks for the info,, :-)
Just a couple of points;
1) All the external users have a high-speed internet connection, either 
cable-modem or DSL.
2) With the LTSP server connected directly to the cable-modem VNC 
connections are fine, no bottle-neck nor any slowdown.

However we need to "secure" the site and wanted to insert a firewall 
between the modem and the LTSP server, hence the question.
Therefore both an IP forwarding and a port forwarding needs to be done ? 
Could you give me an example ?

thanks
norbert
