Many people are wrong, then. NAT is not a security feature.
We simply disagree.
[ NAT sucks. In a very useful way, of course. Exogenous requirements may impose unreasonable constraints upon implementing the technically preferrable solution, just as "inept excess verbiage may disqualify qualifiers". And "But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?" and other tasty bits from the "Applesoft Reference Manual".... ]
Yep, NAT sucks. Exogenous requirements are often generated by marketing fools who think we need to match a technically trivial and meaningless feature in someone else's product. However, twenty some odd years of software engineering has taught me to pick my fights ;-)
Back to the original topic -- divert functionality for ng_ksocket? Useful for much more than nat.
