The Qube is configured from the factory to do NAT for outgoing
connections, and will allow a large number of people to use it
as a gateway for Internet access using said NAT.
However, it does not do port forwarding or routing *into* the
network. Although it could technically be configured to do so
since it's a Linux box, it does not come this way from the
factory and you'd have to make the GUI really unhappy in order
to make it work.
Better suggestion: search the archives for this list using the
keywords "Qube" "port forwarding" and "portfwd". There have been
several detailed discussions on this topic, including URLs of
where to find the packages. Several readers of this list have
also successfully installed these packages (particularly portfwd)
with reports of success and ensuing happiness.
