[tech] flame, moray's kernel and transparent proxying

[Ian McKellar]

Hi,

I've worked out a way to give flame its own IP number without needing to
give it its own machine. We can use the transparent proxying code in linux
to redirect all requests to port 23 with a destination of flame's IP# (I
grabbed 130.95.13.10 - it doesn't seem to be used) to port 4242. We can do
this with all the other services that flame runs. I've set up ip aliasing
on moray (its now using 130.95.13.(9|10)), but moray's kernel doesn't seem
to have the nececary firewall options enabled to do the port redirection.

Where/how was moray's kernel compiled? moray:/usr/src/linux seems to be
2.0.30, but moray is running 2.0.37...

Ian
