You could use the iptables QUEUE target. It allows you to "catch" packets in a user space program (e.g. perl), do stuff with it (or nothing: sleep) and then ACCEPT the packet (or DROP).
It's a pretty crude method, but it works. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Morey ixipetl" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003 5:27 PM Subject: [LARTC] Simulated latency > This seems like it ought to be simple, but so far, no joy.
