Hi,
I have a following question. But I'm not sure about the right newsgroup to ask it. I posted this to two NGs and set the followups to the Windows NG. If neither is the right place, please direct me to correct one. Yes, I know this is a tricky question. I have two computers. Primary runs on Win2000 Pro and has a fast connection. Secondary runs on Win95 and has a slow connection. The secondary offers some services, like WWW. For the record the WWW server is Apache 2.0.47. So normally people connect to the secondary computer, ask for data and it replies with it directly. But I want to set up a truely transparent WWW proxy on the primary computer which the secondary takes advantage of. So that instead of the previous, people connect to secondary computer, request data, and instead of sending the data directly, it forwards the data to primary computer proxy server, which then sends the data to the target computer, faking it's IP to be coming from the secondary computer. I hope you got the picture. Is this possible to do with Windows software? If not, then is it possible with some Linux software? Also, is the IP spoofing necessarily? I think it is, but if the target computer would accept the data from another IP, then there is no need to fool it. I have have a feeling, and this system would mean my primary computer is a WWW gateway to the secondary, is this true? |
