Hello,

I am trying to redirect a packet which is sent from an internal host to an
external site. I want to redirect it to another internal host via the
firewall. I have devised 2 rules but it doesn't seem to work:

ipchains -I input -p tcp -s 192.168.0.0/24 -d 123.234.34.2 -m 5
ipmasqadm -mfw -m 5 -r 192.168.0.5 

The topology looks as follows: (my packet originates from 192.168.0.2)


Internet-------------Firewall--------------------------------------192.168.0
.2
    |                           |
    |                           |
123.234.34.2                    |
                                |
                          192.168.0.5



Is it true to say that IPMASQDAM are not designed for redirection ? In this
case, is there anyway I can do this ?

Note: with IPCHAIN REDIRECT, I can redirect the packet to another port on
the firewall but I really want it to be directed to another internal host.

I have searched the email archive and read the HOWTO but the material
doesn't seem to be very relevant to this case. 
I believe a userspace program redir is mentioned but I am not exactly sure
that is appropriate. 

I am using the kernel 2.2.16.

Any comments much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Bryan
