"Call's forum is set up away.." how so?, you mean its on his lan as a (for instance) 192.168.0.20 and the router that all his lan goes through is 192.168.0.1?.

for that you map the/any lan side servers IP:port on the router to the IP:port of the LANside machine running the thing.

as in, all the webIP:80 (webserver in that default ports case)requests coming in from the websideIP then being routed by the 192.168.0.1 device, get passed directly to the 192.168.0.20:80 IP:port and again in reverse to reply to these incoming requests.

webpage request -in websideVM-IP<=>192.168.0.1-router<=>192.168.0.20:80

just change the IP and port No. for any other machines running other servers or just the :port if your say running the FTP server on the same machine, se what i mean?....

if you mean his forum is on someone elses server machine over on the webside IPs somewere and hes running the FTP on the 192.168.0.20 machine just link back to his websideIP and the right ports 21/23 on the external forum and as the router should have been set to pass the ports to the LAn machine it will work.

theres no real reason why you/friends couldnt run the FTP on your LAN and cal could link into your FTP (assuming you let him) and in return you/his friends could link into cals LAN side webserver in return.

if you/cal/readers have a bunch of friends within wireless range OC, its far easyer just to link everyones wireless kit into say another 10.0.0.* wireless LAN setup that you can all use, and so each can run a seperate server at each house for everyone to use and share rather than keep going throught the WAN/webside IP and taking your VM CM upstream.

it can get as weard as you like..., but the basic idea is a valid IP and port linked to a route that the server whatever it might be http/ftp/IPTV/game/etc, can give out to the user and the user to the server, and it can be running LANside and/or Webside.
