[QUOTE="scaptorz, post: 1087591, member: 166521"] Hello, I'd like to play a MMORPG supposed to be run on windows I decided to use crossover-games. I installed the game without any problems. When I attempt a connection to the game server, it's impossible to connect. I made some searches about this issue, and I learned that the game does not connect to the right address. (iftop is great if you want to monitor your networks data-flows). I've found a work-around but it's only for iptables. Here is the iptables chain I have to use. Code: iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -d (FAKE IP ADDRESS) -j DNAT --to (REAL IP ADDRESS) That means, redirects packets that destination is FAKE IP ADDRESS to REAL IP ADDRESS. I made some searches about ipfw, MAC OS X firewall and Natd, the routing table. I have not been successful. Natd does redirects only addresses in the local network. I do not know how to translate the iptables chain above to a rule for ipfw. Can you help me for this issue? Thank you. [/QUOTE]
