Dear All,

I'm trying to develop a transparent proxy where the user land process is
trying to proxy for the client, but the request sent from that proxy needs
to be as if it came from the client. That is, I want to pretend to be the
client IP address and port number. On the 2.2 kernels I could do this with a
bind call to the non local address. On 2.4 how do I pretend to be the client
address ?

Regards

Simon
