Hello,

I have an application that requires responding to all ip packets on an
interface as if I were the true host (no, it's not a B&E tool).  Is there a
known way to shift the BSD inetd into this mode (promiscuous)?  I don't
necessarily want my application to respond as the destination address (I'll
use my own address, thanks).
