Hi,

> "dnat to 10.96.6.201:22 inface eth0 dst 203.90.xxx.xxx proto tcp dport 23"

Please do:

firehol explain

at the prompt, enter the dnat line. Here is what mine says:

---

# FireHOL [:] > dnat to 10.96.6.201:22 inface eth0 dst 203.90.xxx.xxx
proto tcp dport 23

#
\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/
# Cmd Line : 1
# Command  : dnat to 10.96.6.201:22 inface eth0 dst 203.90.xxx.xxx proto

# Creating chain 'nat.1' under 'PREROUTING' in table 'nat'
/sbin/iptables -t nat -N nat.1
/sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -d 203.90.xxx.xxx
--dport 23 -j nat.1

# Taking the NAT action: 'dnat'
/sbin/iptables -t nat -A nat.1 -p tcp -j DNAT --to-destination 10.96.6.201:22

Which seems ok. What is your output?
