mike,
sorry, i need a little more clarity here.
are 10.170.24.126 and 10.170.24.127 separate boxes on the
same subnet, or are these just two IP's assigned to the same
physical interface on the same box?

Yes, these 2 hosts are on the same subnet. The ultimate goal here is to
have a trap receiver run as a non-privileged account. Unfortunately the
device we are trying to receive traps from can not send them on anything
other than port 162.
Hence, the idea of using IPF to redirect the traps to another server on a
non-privileged port. As for the logic of having something run as root, grab
a trap, and redirect so something else can receive it as non-root...clients
decision, however interesting it is...

IPF loads fine, but the traffic won't pass from 126 to 127. Does anyone
have any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong here?
ipf will not "bounce" connections, ie. coming in and
going out on the same interface.
