Really? So SOCKS doesn't require any special software on the computers not running
SOCKS? And SOCKS is easier than:
/usr/local/bin/ipfw a m all from 192.168.0.3/24 to 0.0.0.0/0
to set up?
Hrm...last I knew you had to get special software, compile it, install it,
and figure out how to use it.
Please enlighten me.
