thanks, but I think it's not the same. 1) Most companies have some kind of filtering web proxies at the port 80 (and all other ports blocked) - like Squid or commercial ones (NetCache?) and this just won't work. 2) And also I already have Apache at the port 80, serving my site. OpenBSD's or Linux firewall won't be able to selectively redirect requests (unless I write some pf module for that). I wonder if it's possible with Apache 2? To get hold of the client socket, so that I can poll() or select() it and implement server push aka Comet Regards Alex
