Oops, sorry for the confusion. How fancy a change is up to you, but changing ALIAS_PORT_BASE and ALIAS_PORT_MASK (and _EVEN) would let you confine the port range without much work. Un-nat'd folks are most likely using ports in the hi range, and usually without trouble - presumably normal programs don't make special checks for trojan ports. -- Barney Wolff http://www.databus.com/bwresume.pdf I'm available by contract or FT, in the NYC metro area or via the 'Net. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
