You can just port-forward port 80 (usual http) and 22 (usual ssh) ports of your main box directly to your internal box. If you need to open up more ports for forwarding, you just change your script and those ports go onto your internal box. The forwarding mechanism doesn't know what the packets are for, it just forwards certain ports. So if you decide you want your internal box to be an SMTP server, you just start up the SMTP daemon on the internal box and ask your mainbox to forward port 25.

Ok,
 
Port 80 and 22 are already forwarded from the modem to the main
box(10.0.5)and apache is listening for my domain name.So when I forward
port 80 from 10.0.0.5 to 192.168.2.2 it blocks apache from the 10.0.0.5
box.
I want to make 192.168.2.2 a sub-domain of 10.0.0.5 so apache from
192.168.2.2 only listens for subdomain.maindomain.com .
 
Can I do this with one Internet IP?
