Read divert sockets in java?

Question

If I was to create a ipfw divert rule to forward all FTP traffic to a specific socket, is it possible to use Java to connect to the socekt and read the packet information? If so, how would i go about reading/writing to the scoket?

Answer 1

not sure what you mean. If you're using a divert rule, then all you have to do is listen on that ip:port combination in your java app and you're all set. If you want to read the actual destination endpoint information, you'll need to use JNI for that.
