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).

    • Microsoft employee behind AnduinOS releases more updates, here's how to upgrade

      By zikalify · Posted

      Microsoft employee behind AnduinOS releases more updates, here's how to upgrade by Paul Hill A small Linux distribution created by a Microsoft employee drew quite a bit of attention in recent months with its attempts to ease users into Linux by looking just like Windows. This week, AnduinOS was upgraded to a new batch of point releases, including 1.3.3, 1.2.6, and 1.1.6. These point releases do not bring too many changes, and all the changes that are introduced are identical across all three versions. Here are the release notes this time: Fixed an accessibility issue that caused the screen reader unable to read the text. Added librime-plugin-lua for ibus-rime users to support Lua scripts. This only affects zh_CN by default. Added policykit-desktop-privileges to the default app list to allow no-password prompts for mount, simple updates, etc. As a new Linux distribution on the scene, updating it is not as straightforward as opening a software store and tapping the upgrade button. For now, upgrades rely on a script. To update your computer using this script, open up a terminal window and type do_anduinos_upgrade. Running this command will bring you up to the latest point release for your respective major version, even if you’re not on the latest point release right now. In the future, Anduin Xue, the Microsoft employee who develops AnduinOS, wants to allow you to grab new versions via sudo apt upgrade. For the time being, users will need to stick to running the script to ensure their device is up to date. Last month, it was announced that AnduinOS 1.4 will be based on Ubuntu 25.10 and will drop in late October, while Anduin OS 1.5 will be based on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS and arrive in late April 2026. Hopefully, we will see more maturation with those updates, such as upgrading the system with an apt command instead of a script.

      I know companies like to assume first party ads are okay, and I often don't have a huge problem with things like extra iCloud space offers showing up in relevant places. Relevant being the keyword. There is literally nowhere on a phone where a movie ad would ever be in context.
