No... I'm assuming you are using GoChargeIt for credit card processing since
you are talking about a "call back" from them.

GoChargeIt has a super-lame API that you trasmit your IP address to them,
then you have to listen on a designated port, and they contact your IP
address to complete the transaction. Since they are contacting you as part
of the transaction you cannot use them behind a NAT.

The best suggestion I can give if you have to run machines behind a NAT is
to use any other processing gateway.
