Hello pplz. This is, I hope, a dilemma that is easily solved. I have two SuSE boxes sitting behind a masquarding firewall/proxy. Both boxes are on a non-routable network, although one (and only one) box is visible from the outside world. This is a limitation imposed by our fascist cable provider. Anyway, I would like to be able to see the other box from the outside. The only way I can think of doing this is to forward requests for a particular service (eg, http requests) from the box that _is_ visible to the box that isn't. The box that is visible is already running a web server on port 80, so the other box would have to run it on some other port. No big deal. I've managed to do something like this already using a subtle combination of tcpserver (written by djb, the qmail guy) and netcat for imap and pop3 services. However this is clunky and I'm sure there are software packages out there to do just this sort of thing. I simply don't know what they are. :) Any ideas?

Or you could use rinetd, which also does portforwarding: http://www.suse.de/~grimmer/rinetd/ Bye, LenZ -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Lenz Grimmer SuSE GmbH mailto:grimmer@suse.de Schanzaeckerstr. 10 http://www.suse.de/~grimmer 90443 Nuernberg, Germany -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

I would assume, that the kernel based portforwarding is faster than the user level rinetd. Regarding usability: I have not fully understood ipchains yet :) I prefer rinetd...
