Hmm, yes. I know what you meen. By forwarding the port to the web machine
you aren't opening your firewall - no, not really more than through the HTML
page that puts you through because you only forward the port from your VDR
box to your webserver.

If you want to use your webserver and build a side that will allow access to
your VDR box you'll do the same practically: giving access to your VDR box
from outside your LAN.

What's the diffent between HTML control page and direct forwarding of one
port? You wouldn't give SSH or telnet access to everybody.

Our mailserver communicates with our - sorry for saying that magical word -
MS Proxy which is forwarding the SMTP port so that everyone could receive
emails but nobody could access other services.

Best regards
	Ingo

PS: I cann't give you a hint on programming your side for your needs
correctly - sorry.

I dont want to open the firewall(!)
All I need is a simple(?) html page to access my vdr box from the webserver
(I come through the firewall on port 80, request a html file, the request
puts me on port 8001 of the vdr box)
