Good Day All,
	Firstly, let me apologise if this is not the correct forum for
this question, and please excuse my massive ignorance.
  I am looking at trying to impliment some form of transparent proxy
solution, and so far, all I can find is references to tproxy, which
apparently requires IPFILTER (NOT IPFW) to be used.  After reading up on
ipfw, I notice that it too has "divert" options.  Is it therefore possible
to use ipfw to impliment a transparent proxy solution?  Any and all
pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
	Karl
