It works, I even tested this. There is no reason for it not working even on one interface, provided that:
- you accept port 80 connections,
- you enabled forwarding (echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward),
- you use both lines in my original posting (DNAT and SNAT),
- you have a route from this computer to the real http server (the default route is sufficient if you're able to reach the http server from the forwarding computer).
