And then what?

Reverse NAT passing through a NIX box offers absolutely no security at
all unless the NIX box has an IPS/IDS or something of that ilk setup on
it which you could easily have on the firewall that is between the OWA
box and the net.

Having a NIX box in place doesn't offer any security above having a
firewall unless the NIX box actually has something running on it.
