You can edit the config with a text editor (either vi or notepad or whatever). The line you need to add in the "nat.ini" section for the mapping is: create protocol=tcp inside_addr=10.0.0.3:80 outside_addr=0.0.0.0:80 foreign_addr=0.0.0.0:0 Hope this helps... You can also edit this in the GUI under the "NAPT" entrys.
