i'm not sure if you can port forward a VPN connection, at least a
windows VPN. if you are encapsulating an IPsec connection within UDP
then it *might* be possible. but i'm not sure if you can forward a GRE
or ESP tunnel, it's not a port but a protocol.

you might have to forward *all* traffic instead of port forwarding.
