    Redirecting Ports..

    Is it possible to change a port in which an application uses?

    For example
    I open up an app and it opens up Port 15732
    But I want it to use Port 15731
    Is this possible to create some type of proxy that the application redirects to? :S

    Re: Redirecting Ports..

    As far as I know, the only way to change that would be to re-write the program itself and I'm assuming you havent got access to the code for this program you mention? Also, you would need to modify both 'ends' of the application... Applications only use ports when they need to communicate with another machine (usually either a server on your local network or a server on the internet). So if you changed the port on the client side then it wouldnt ever reach the server side because the server would be listening on the original port.. so you would need to make the server side application listen on your new port as well.
