- udp_relay
- v0.10 (05 Aug 1997)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- udp_relay can be used in place of a masquerading firewall to allow computers
- inside a local network to access outside Internet resources (such as xpilot).
-
- To use it, simply place udp_relay on the RISC OS gateway machine (in a
- taskwindow), and execute the following command
-
- *udp_relay <local host> <remote host> <port>
-
- where <local host> is a machine on your network that wants access to Internet
- resources, and where <remote host> is the machine it will initially try to
- contact, and port is the port it will initially try to contact.
-
- e.g. to play xpilot on machine `chris', via gateway `phoenix', where `chris'
- is running RiscBSD
-
- [on `phoenix']
- *TaskWindow "udp_relay chris xpilot.usa.net 15345"
-
- [on `chris']
- chris$ xpilot -join phoenix
-
-
- e.g. to send remote OSCLI commands to machine `badger.usa.net' from an
- internal machine `chris', via gateway `phoenix'
-
- [on `phoenix']
- *TaskWindow "udp_relay chris badger.usa.net 8805"
-
- [on `chris']
- *roscli phoenix "Echo A message from chris!"
-
- You can recompile the (ugly) sources, but you need OSLib. This program
- is only a stopgap before I get the proper CopySocks event-driven
- multiple-host-handling module out, which will be soon.
