datapipe.c is a simple program that allows a listening TCP/IP port to be
|
||
|
|
constructed on the machine it is running on. Any connections to that port
|
||
|
|
will then be forwarded to the specified remote host and remote port. This
|
||
|
|
program can be useful for allowing your Distributed.net clients
|
||
|
|
communicate to the outside world by running it on a gateway machine that
|
||
|
|
has access to both the inside firewall and the outside realworld.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Additionally, if you live behind a SOCKS firewall, you can compile this
|
||
|
|
code with SOCKS support for your system and use it to act as a
|
||
|
|
"SOCKS translator" for your Distributed.net clients. In this case,
|
||
|
|
datapipe doesn't even need to be run on a gateway machine.
