Hello,

Why don't you trim your Proxy to listen on Port 80 ?

Congratulations, you have read through the Checkpoint Docs very
carefully. It is a Checkpoint Interna that routing occours before
NATing. It means that when the packet enters your Firewall it will stay
untouched on routed by the OS to the right interface and THEN Checkpoint
will NAT it according to the rulebase.

This is only mentioned because NATing might need additional arp entries
and additional routes in a CheckpointHost, so that the packets will find
there way. i.e. you might need a route an the CheckpointHost from
@ip_dest to @ip_proxy.

It will probably work, if not, your problem won't be a routing issue but
the SRC "any". I dun know if any can be a SRC for NAT. Pls let me know
if it works.
