How do i forward a port?

[Aditya Nag]

Thanks for the reply, but I'm a little unclear on a few things. Do I
need to set up a forward rule in zone.int or zone.ext? I tried both
and it's not working. If it's possible, could you please send me a
slightly more detailed explanation. I feel rather stupid for not being
able to figure this out, but it's one of those things where you just
get stuck!

Thanks again for your help,
Aditya
