internal resources accessible on public IP

i know there's a more efficient way to word this but here goes...

i have a server running RRAS, DNS, DHCP and IIS 6.0 (yes, i am aware there's a newer version). i have 1 public IP which the LAN uses for internet access. i have 2 internal machines that i would like to allow outside access to for HTTP. one uses port 80, the other is on another port. obviously if i also have a website on the main server using port 80, then it would not be available to forward. in RRAS, right-clicking the public-IP's adapter and going to Services and Ports is where you set up forwarding rules, and there is an 'incoming' and 'outgoing' port for each entry. i would like to figure out how to either allow direct access to the specified LAN machines, or perhaps there is another way, where one could use 'public-IP/directory' to view the internal resource 'via' the public machine? i really hope i'm not confusing anyone. thanks!

Hello,

Could you precise one thing ? You talked about "2 internal machines" do you mean you have a host and two vm on it ? If so you have to get two public ip one for each vm because you can route only one port 80 by public ip.

Are you machines just connected to your main server in LAN ?
