I've been having lots of problems with forwarding my ports to servers within my LAN and just recently discovered what has been causing it but I don't understand why. It appears that my forwarding works if I leave the incoming port as 'any' instead of specifying which port. For example if I configure it to listen on port 22 then forward that port traffic to 192.168.0.3 it will not work. If I configure it to listen on any port 'any' then forward to the traffic on port 22 to 192.168.0.3 it works. I hope this makes sense...
Why would this be causing me an issue? Is it due to another setting?
I would prefer it to listen on the specific ports if possible since I feel it is more specific which to me makes it somewhat more secure due to lower possibilities.
Thanks in advance for the help and/or explanation.
