    I to was just looking at the same thing the other day.
    It appears the PIX will do a static PAT (since version 6.2?) in order to
    solve this type of thing.

    The command:
      static (inside,outside) tcp interface www 10.0.0.1 www netmask
    255.255.255.255
    Is apparently the way to go about it. Oh yeah you need the right
    access-list on the outside too something like
      access-list outside_in permit tcp any host pu.bl.ic.ip eq www

    My dilemma is I can't seem to make it work. I'm not using it in the
    Cisco style fashion but more like what Juan wants.

      static (inside,browse_dmz) tcp interface 80 10.0.0.1 3128 netmask
    255.255.255.255
      access-list from_browse_dmz permit tcp 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 any
    eq 80
      access-group from_browse_dmz in interface browse_dmz

    This shows nothing in the pix logs, and a tcpdump on 10.0.0.1 shows
    nothing hitting it. If I remove the access-list rule it does show the
    packets being denied so I think they are being allowed successfully
    (also confirmed but hit count on a show access-list. The routing from
    browse_dmz to inside also works OK as I tested allowing 3128 directly
    and you can get to 3128 fine. I also bumped IE/Mozilla from the equation
    by trying a straight - telnet some.host 80

    Anyone got any ideas? Maybe able to solve two problems at once.
