Is it possible? (title of this question)

Googling Virtualization with one public IP address yields nothing useful

What I have:

SmartOS on a dedicated server.
Dedicated server has one public IP address.

What I want to do:

Host multiple guest OS from that server

Problem:

Access to the guest through the (server that virtualizes the guest)'s IP address.

Is this possible at all?

Sorry, newbie to all this

Research

http://www.machine-unix.com/beginning-with-smartos/#comment-7256 Does not solve my problem - the guide sets up an internal IP

Ideas

Perhaps it is possible to do host-based translation like with nginx proxy?
