I live behind a cable modem, and Cox Communications appears to firewall ports 137-139, among others, both ways. It's fine with me that my ports 137-139 are protected from outside snooping (though I run my own firewall anyway), but I'd like the ability to send out requests on them and get answers back. I run a VPN to a machine which has no such out-of-my-hands firewall in its way... Can I possibly tell my FreeBSD box to send TCP/UDP traffic bound for ports 137-139 via a different route than all other traffic, and can I route responses back similarly (the other end of the VPN is also a FreeBSD box)? It would be really nice if I could do this without using the VPN as a pathway, but I think I could handle it either way. -- Doug Lee dgl@visi.com http://www.visi.com/~dgl Bartimaeus Group doug@bartsite.com http://www.bartsite.com "Determine that the thing can and shall be done, and then...find the way." - Abraham Lincoln To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
