Divert sockets for Linux 2.2.12

[Ilia Baldine <ibaldin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

This is an announcement of FreeBSD divert sockets now available
for Linux 2.2.12 (together with modified ipchains-1.3.9). Please
visit

http://www.anr.mcnc.org/~divert

Latest available release is 1.0.4. Anything before that should be
considered beta.

Divert sockets let you bring packets to user space and selectively
reinject them in any direction (inbound, outbound,forward) based
on firewall rule selection. Whatever the firewall can filter out
you can bring to user space.

Unlike the raw sockets, with divert sockets you get the actual packet,
not its copy, so if you do not reinject it - its intended recepient will
not see it.

For more questions please read the HOWTO available at the same
URL.

PS An older version for Linux 2.0.36 is also

available.
