You can either use ipfw/natd to do this, or if it's only one port that you want to redirect, install ports/net/redir and run it only when you want the redirection enabled. Are you sure people in your school will happy to find you running ICQ though? Yes, port redirection is fun, but if breaking the rules puts you in a funny/troublesome position, perhaps it's better to avoid it. -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
