I can't believe this hasn't been discussed before but as I'm
relatively new to the list please forgive my ignorance.

Does anybody know of a generic tcp/udp proxy which does not suffer
from the limitations of the likes of plug-gw (no slight intended),
i.e. will support one-to-many connections to the same destination
port?

Is the answer to this client code that always connects to the proxy
but furnishes it with a name and destination port number of the
ultimate destination?

Does a, dare I suggest, standard exist for such communication?

Grateful for any feedback,

Mike.
