[NMLUG] simple proxy

I'm not sure, but that looks like a forwarder for inetd.
It will forward services from a gateway to an internal machine...
but I'm not sure it would be a proxy for my client apps.

I didn't know about it though, and it seems like a very
valuable tool to have for security.

It looks like with this, I could set up an internet gateway
that forwards ports for things like WWW or ssh to dedicated
servers (protetected by NAT) in a DMZ.

Right now I have many services on my gateway machine,
although its firewalled to only allow ssh and http in from
the internet.   Might be better to seperate this out
onto more machines...  If I were a bigger operation.
