I thought it was finally there. But I am dissapointed.
It will loopback to itself instead of really acting like
the packets were coming form outside. For example, when I
use ie to check my webserver and I type: http://my-
external-ip/ I end up with the management interface even
though I have my webserver set up in the DMZ. I have to
explicitely forward port 80 to the IP of my webserver. SSH
won't work either until I forward manually SSH to the
server. Same thing for any service. Basically, it negates
the purpose of having a server in the DMZ at first.
Not mentionning that I got a little worried when my
external website started showing the management console.
