[Roger Oberholtzer]

I am setting up a bugzilla on an internal server. I want to access it
from an external machine. I can open a port between the outside and this
machine. My question is: what is the current smartest way to connect
this external port to the internal one? In the past, I used an httpd
proxy. That seems a bit dated. The external client is always unknown. It
is, of course, important that the connection will only connect to a
single specific internal port. Any passwords would be those maintained
by Bugzilla. Perhaps this should be an https connection?

I guess I am after the thinnest solution.
