| 11 | Description: Excessive port forwarder |
| 12 | fw can forward connections to and from: TCP sockets, Unix-domain sockets, |
| 13 | locally-executed programs, and file descriptors. It can do host-based |
| 14 | access control. It will log incoming TCP connections by hostname and |
| 15 | username (as reported by identd on the connecting host). It subsumes the |
| 16 | basic functionality of inetd, cat, netcat and others. It runs as a |
| 17 | single nonblocking process. |
