Not what I want.  I have looked at 'redir'.  I would like it to be
implemented more at the kernel level.  Currently, I can run this command:

  ipfwadm -I -P tcp -a accept -S 0/0 -D 127.0.0.1/32 23 -r 1000

That will take packet coming from anywhere, headed toward the local telnet
port, and redirect it toward the local 1000 port.  Why can't I also put in
a destination system address?  I currently setup 'redir' to listen on port
1000, and redirect it across the LAN(actually, across a simulated SLIP link
between linux and DOSEMU), but it seems I should be able to do something
like it with the kernel.

If I need to talk to the kernel guys, then if someone could direct me to
the proper mailing list, I will post my question there.  Txs.
