Hi Guys - I'm port forwarding to an http server scripted in node.js -
whilst port forwarding apache at the same time. The node server is
receiving requests fine from localhost on the vm but not via the
forwarded port on the host machine...any thoughts?

This is usually caused because the node.js server is probably binding
itself to 127.0.0.1 which is the loopback interface, where it really
needs to bind itself to 0.0.0.0 so it is visible to the outside world.
