Subject:   UDP Mapping w/ 1 Interface, how?

  Here's the scenario:

  I have a box running FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE with a single interface (ethernet
card). I want to listen for UDP packets on a specified port, say 20000, and
redirect these packets to an external host, say user.domain.org:20000.  I
initially tried doing this with NAT and ipfw, but after posting a message on
this list last week, it seems that the consensus is that this is not correct
method. So, my question now is, what _is_ the correct method for setting up
such a router? No need to give me step-by-step instructions, but if someone
could point me in the direction to look at I would greatly appreciate it.

  FYI: I have an Win98 box with WinGate on it right now that is currently
performing this exact same service (UDP Mapping with 1 NIC). For obvious
reasons I would rather have my BSD box handling this. ;)

  Thanks!
