But, as I said before, SCPS seemed particularly interesting. Hi Noah, SCPS does sound interesting, and I agree it's difficult to find recent information. Did you come across this older document? It has some interesting content. https://yazzy.org/docs/SCPS/SCPS_GATEWAY_v1.2.1.doc The SCPS transparent gateway will operate on either the FreeBSD or the Linux operating system. It was originally developed for the FreeBSD operating system. If you're still interested, maybe we could try to find this old implementation and explore how difficult it would be to get it working on a supported version of FreeBSD? Do you have more information about your project? How much time do you have? Are projects restricted to networking, or are any operating system projects possible? Joe
