I have a couple of questions about mapping ports using iptables.
Firstly, is it dangerous? Can mapping a port compromise my system in any way?
Secondly, if it's not dangerous, can anyone point me to a howto that
actually explains not only how this is done, but has examples. I've had a
look around for stuff, but I really don't understand what they're talking
about half the time. An example that I can modify to suit my own needs
would be great.
thanks,
Sandra.
