Rafael:

For reasons unknown to me, you sent this directly to me. While I am on
the LRP mailing list and have used LRP to do NAT from an old 486 and a
56k modem, I've done very little with servers on the net. Anyway, I have
no idea whether or not LRP would suit your needs, though my guess would
be that it's possible, but I have NO idea how to do it. Perhaps you
would be better to ask the experts at the LRP mailing list (I've
included the list in my reply). Those guys are the ones you wanted to
send mail to, not me.

Good luck.
