Probably you should read the divert(4) manual page and the ipfw(8) manual, looking for the 'divert' directive. The good example of your application is /sbin/natd. The aforementioned facilities are present in FreeBSD at least since 4.x. -- Eygene _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
