Sometime back I had posted a query on port mapping and how to achieve
it .. i wanted to get my squid proxy box
to also just "map" or "redirect" some ports to real ports ..
specifically I wanted to use it to access pop mails. While
help was forthcoming (thanks for that!), a solution was not.
I found a simple solution in the book Linux Server Hacks by Oreilly. Check out
http://www.boutell.com/rinetd to
download a simple tool that will do the redirection .. for eg. if you want to access
emails via pop from thunderbird
etc, currently works only for tcp redirection .. the redirection is achieved via a simple
rinetd.conf file that does the
mapping. Check the url for more info ..

rinetd is outdated. iptables is the current tool to application
independent achieve port redirection.
