I'm using port forwarding to the same machine like this:
ipchains -A input -v -i $extint -p tcp -d 0.0.0.0/0 $OUT_PORT -j REDIRECT $LOCAL_PORT
ipchains -A input -v -i $extint -p udp -d 0.0.0.0/0 $OUT_PORT -j REDIRECT $LOCAL_PORT
Look in the ipchains howto for how to tell it where to go if you want remote
forwarding...
