Redirecting X.X.X.X IP to Y.Y.Y.Y ?

I want to redirect an IP address to another ip address permanently. I mean all traffic.

I'm looking for something just like "hosts" file. But for IP addresses.

For example when I write IE [http://190.12.12.12] it must be direct to [http://190.13.13.13].

Any idea to do this on a windows box ?
Or any proxy - SOCKS tool ?

You're on a windows box, you can do a redirect to another IP or even port in IIS.

But I'm talking about redirect .asp files.

I mean when a program try to access X.X.X.X IP it will access Y.Y.Y.Y IP

For example ping.exe must ping to Y.Y.Y.Y when I try to ping X.X.X.X

You can't accomplish that via the ping
You can redirect via asp pages, via IIS, you can add cnames to your DNS or have a DNS service forward everything from one IP to another, but it will not forward pings, tracerouts, etc.
What exactly are you trying to accomplish by forwarding?

I have a program that limited to just one IP,

I want to redirect it's target IP to my own desired IP.

Do you control the program's target IP that you want to redirect?

No

Is the program pointing to an IP or to a hostname??

Unfortunately to an IP

I'm throwing the towel in..., good luck, let me know if you figure it out.

If the computer is on your domain, set you up a router and just forward that port request to whatever computer you want.

Or if you have apache set up, try this: http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/apache-modu...g.html?rev=1.2

No it's not my own.
I'm looking a local solutions or something like man in the middle style.

If you are attempting to redirect ip(a) to ip(b) and
do not control the transmitting program
nor have a good working relationship with whoever does
then it seems that you may be attempting to do something undesirable.

Alternatively what you are looking for is a networking response and the solution may lie in the use of NAT or PAT protocols and you should be asking your question in a networking forum.

I know you can turn on routing like this:
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters]
Value Name: IPEnableRouter
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = disabled, 1 = enabled)

But for the life of me i cant think of a way to do what you want. I would take a look at any registry guides you can get your hands on and see if they have any info on any keys that would help accomplish this. Now that im strangley interested, ill be taking a look through some of the registry guides i have and ask around at school. keep us updated itf you figure somethin out.

Intresting.... Now I personally feel this is not possbile.. like I ping to an static IP and it returns me the ping of other IP..... U can try IP spoofing in that case....

Setthesun.. I guess you want to divert the traffic of a site to an other site.... Inthat case u can use ASP's Response.Redirect method and store that as default page of ur IP X.X.X.X with a pointer to Y.Y.Y.Y

But for that u shall need to have the access to add / modify file in X.X.X.X ......

Yes I can route it if it's in my own localarea network and with my router but in this position target is website.

Anyway thank you all :) I'll try to make some researches about NAT / PAT protocols.

Also all comments are welcome.

Routing would not help, since the packet would still be framed with the original target IP and would be re-routed back to target by any router not in your control.

Is there a windows equivalent of iptables ? I don't know this. But using iptables it is possible to change the source and destination addresses of a packet - This is something the MIRROR target for iptables does - See this for information:

Now my knowledge of iptables is limited, but try these articles:

http://www.google.com/linux?hl=en&lr...=Google+Search

This will give you an understanding of what you are trying to acheive, you can then search for a windows solution.

i know that there are programs with which you can do this, it is used too in honeypots or virtual hosts. so if you look for honeypot or virtual host on google, you should be able to get something....

good luck,

and let us know if you found it and how it works :)

I thinnk I need a proxy to support to change destination ip addresses on the fly.

I looked for iptables for windows I find nothing also I couldn't find a way to do this in a *nix box.

yes,

you would most likely need a proxy. A port/IP redirection won't help as previously mentioned because the header will still contain origial stats. You would need to write a program to emulate (or pass on rather) the information.

IE:
You are person 2, person 1 is trying to connect to person 3.

Code:

---

1->3  ... here you intercept this call, can't rember how at the moment, and tell #1 that #3's addr is #2's addr
2->3 ....hello, i'm 1 (@IP of person2) and trying to connect
3-2> ....hello person 1, how are you?
2->1 ....hello person 1, how are you?
1->2 ....i'm doing fine
2->3 ....i'm doing fine
BLAH BLAH BLAH
