Yup, on my test-box : 2.4.20-rc1 (still, but it's doing nothing at the
moment).
I had no problems patching it however.

hostname forwarding

[bernard]

I'm using iptables to redirect external requests depending on their 
port/protocol like this :

	hostname A:80 -> public ip -> iptables -> 192.168.1.1:80
	hostname B:80 -> public ip -> iptables -> 192.168.1.1:80

It works pretty well, thanks to iptables :-)

Now I want to redirect on a hostname basis on different private ip's 
like this :

	hostname A:80 -> public ip -> iptables -> 192.168.1.1:80
	hostname B:80 -> public ip -> iptables -> 192.168.1.2:80

Does anyone know a solution ?

Thanks for your help.

this is not possible using ipotables

Apache however can very well handle this ..

Ummm, what is the -s parameter for then?
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -s <hostname A> --dport 80 -j
REDIRECT --to-destination 192.168.1.1:80
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -s <hostname B> --dport 80 -j
REDIRECT --to-destination 192.168.1.2:80

Or am I missing something?

Re: hostname forwarding

The host A and Host B share the same ip address.
In this case -s is no useful because resolving host a and host b return 
the same address, and the 1st match win.
You can use APACHE name virtual host to handle this correctly.

OK, that makes sense...

Re: hostname forwarding

[bernard]

Thank again for your valuable help.

So apache can take http requests to do that but what's about the 
other protocols ?

It seems that squid can do a transparent proxy for some of them.

Do I need to use a specific solutions for each different protocol I 
want to set and what solution to use for the most common (telnet, 
pop, imap, ftp, ...) ?

Iptables will only forward (resolved) IP adresses (and/or ports).
If Host-A has the same IP address as Host-B, then packets will be
forwarded to one and the same internet IP address.
You could accept http traffic on, let's say, port 81 and redirect
traffic for Host-B:81 to 192.168.1.2:80, but I don't think that's what
you want : people would have to type http://Host-B:81 to enter the site.
