Re: Socket Traffic Cop

Assuming you're on linux, I'd recommend skipping perl and using iptables to take care of this.

iptables -A PREROUTING -i <interface> -s <sourceip> -p tcp -m tcp --dp
+ort <port> -j REDIRECT --to-ports <newport>
[download]

There's also an option to specify a source network instead of a single IP.

Turns out to be solaris... they won't let me install POE. Could you give me any tips on how to install a localized (to my home dir) perl dist for solaris ? I see that many modules POE requires are not in the prod perl dist that I can't touch. I might be able to use a linux box to do this and route the solaris ports, thanks for the tip.	[reply]

Did you read the INSTALL file, and the platform specific readme file?	[reply]

YES. There is an update to IO that is required that I am not allowed to make. You can move on to other threads, click the hide tab on this one.	[reply]
