IP forwarding via Webmin


Recommended Posts

Take a look at the included PNG image.

All I want to do is forward traffic from my public port (well say 64.64.64.64 for fun) to my private port of my webserver (192.168.0.2)

Actually I have other traffic to forward to, but once I figure out what goes where then I can do the rest.

Am I missing a setting for easy mode? This shouldn't be that advanced nor difficult.

It's not that difficult - what is you do not understand?  What module are you looking at?

Networking -> Firewall -> IPTables -> Forwarding -> Add Rule

I just want to say listen on this interface (or public IP address) on port 80 and forward the packets to port 80 on a private IP address (192.168.0.2)

I had a little applet for Windows that worked flawlessly but I took one look at the Webmin page and I went, oh god, what's all this.

I think the command line method looks more straightforward.

I just find Webmin's page (as I posted from the PNG image) to not have good organization or clear descriptions. I'm used to doing this sort of thing on various NAT routers without difficulty.

Usually I'm very happy with how Webmin presents its information (for instance the Samba module is clean and straightforward).

    • Switch to another OS if you're into tinfoil hat mentality, or just uninstall the app. Oh, wait, even after uninstalling it, can Microsoft still be looking at everything? We'll never know, so, yeah, that's that. If you use Windows, you need to live with those options.
    • Minecraft Chase the Skies update and Vibrant Visuals graphics overhaul lands next week by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The second major game update of the year for Minecraft is almost here. Mojang today announced that its next Game Drop, Chase the Skies, is landing on June 17. Alongside it, the highly anticipated graphics overhaul, dubbed Vibrant Visuals, will be available too, making the day a rather big occasion for Minecraft fans. The Chase the Skies update has a large number of gameplay features and content, but one of the biggest is the expansion of the Ghast. Now, players will be able to find Happy Ghasts as a tameable mob, letting up to five players ride them on journeys across the skies. To get one, players will have to find small, dehydrated Ghasts near fossil structures in the Nether, then bring it to the overworld and feed it plenty of water. It is also possible to craft dried Ghasts from Nether materials. Other features of this update include a handy player locator bar, better leads functionality, craftable saddles, a new music disc, and more. As for the Vibrant Visuals upgrade, Mojang is touting a visual refresh that lets players witness how lights and shadows affect the Minecraft world. "Fly high with your happy ghast to watch the sunrise reflect on the rippling ocean, make art with shifting shadows, descend into dark depths, or simply sit back and enjoy the vivid beauty of each biome," says the studio. "With updated in-game visuals you’ll see how light and shadow transform the Overworld – water reflects, forests become shaded, fog drifts, and waterfalls glimmer in the light." The currently supported devices for Vibrant Visuals include Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, as well as Android (Android: Adreno 640, Mali-G68, Mali-G77, or Xclipse 530 or higher) and iOS (A12 or M1 or higher.)   Unfortunately, the Vibrant Visuals upgrade will only be available on the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft, at least for now. Mojang has said that it plans to bring the visual overhaul to the Java Edition of Minecraft at a later date, but no information or release window has been announced just yet.
