I'm not sure what you mean by IIS has to serve them, - when creating the
new
default directory it has to be pointed initially to a real directory, which
can be either a local one, or a network share, but the choice is
irrelevant,
because as soon as the wizard has finished and the new virtual directory is
created, I change the properties so that the content selection changes from
"A directory located on this computer" to "A redirection to
a URL" then
specify "www.paulgordon.homeip.net:82" as the URL to redirect to.

NO content has to be served to the browser from the IIS machine the new URL
gets passed back to the client which then requests it as normal. Then,
because it is a *NEW* request on a different port number, my router's
redirection sends it to the requisite server on my LAN, on THAT machines
standard http port 80.

so I _can_ publish multiple internal webservers all on port 80 - but I _do_
need the client request to come in on the alternate port number eventually,
so that the router knows which server the request is for...
