    Question Can iptables solve it??

    Hi all,
    I have a database server and I have a router machine.
    I need to get all the packets going to the database server on the router machine. I don't have to let any of them pass directly to the database server.
    Can I do this using iptables??
    Please help
    Thanks...

    Hi all,
    This is the actual setup:

    [CLIENT] -- [INTERNET] -- [ROUTER MACHINE] -- [DB SERVER]

    The ROUTER MACHINE and the DB SERVER are on the same LAN.
    I want that any packet sent from the CLIENT to the DB SERVER should be received at the ROUTER MACHINE and SHOULD NOT GO TO THE DB SERVER DIRECTLY. I need to make changes to the packet at the ROUTER.
    Is this possible using iptables using DNAT or REDIRECT I suppose?? if so , how??
    Please please help me...
    Thanks a lot in advance...
