Packet Headers

[Aaron Elliott]

Need to know how to insert internal ip address to a packet header being directed to an external ip. purpose is for routing to a network computer from an external machine.

hmmm.. isn't that called spoofing? Fooling the user so it's like it's from a friend but it's actually from another computer?

hmm dunno how to do that...
maybe take a look at http://www.mvps.org/vbnet/

i can get data to the enternal ip, but from there it needs to be routed to the the appropriate computer. don't need to fool anyone into thinking i'm a different person, just get the data to them.

I think it will be very slow if you create it in vb.
You can also use (like I do) FloppyFW. It's a linux ip-masquerading program that fits on a floppy. The server computer doesn't even need a harddisk.

i need something that will send data to the internal ip when it reaches the ip of the lan.
