Hey everyone,

I've trying to find an answer for this for quite some time now but I haven't been able to do so...

Basically, my configuration is as follows:
I have an iMac that is connected directly to the Internet via an Ethernet (RJ-45) cable.
Then I have two Windows computers (a Notebook and a Desktop) that connects to the internet through my iMac via WiFi.

It's a typical network but with no routers or access points.

Now... I have an Apache Web Server running on my Windows Notebook computer and I need it to be accessed from the outside world. So, the only thing I need to do is that when someone access:
http://MYIPADDRESS:80/
Force it to go to my Notebook computer in 10.0.2.2:8080.

How can I achieve this on a Mac OS X? (I'm also a new user).

Can I? Do I need an application to do so?

Thanks in advance!

But take that, for my experience, with the wireless OSX Internet Sharing not all the functions seem to be available: for example to obtain a full IP addressability I'd to use an access point
