There is something that does just that! It's part of the TIS fwtk (firewall toolikit) and is called plug-gw. It's a tiny little program you run from inetd.conf and that redirects connections to specific ports on the current host to other addresses (host:ports). It is driven by a configuration file where you can specify the host/port to connect to based on the origin of the connection. Very nice stuff, and amazingly compact (like the rest of the TIS fwtk). You can grab it off ftp://ftp.tis.com (look around, it's a bit hard to find). You can also get to it by surfing from http://www.tis.com, but again, it's a bit hidden (most of the pages are about commercial products, but the fwtk is free). [snip] Nadav
