forwarding another port to lokinet #2143

Closed resession closed 1 year ago

in tor, we are able to make nginx listen on port 8080(or another port chosen by the user) and then we can forward that chosen port to port 80. so in nginx port 8080 > tor port 80

it would be great if we can choose our own port. as of right now on lokinet, nginx has to listen on port 80 and we can not choose another port, so would it be great if this feature can be added so it would look like this nginx port 8080 > lokinet port 80

this is the job of your os firewall. lokinet is an onion routed unicast ip tunnel and we have no reason to implement our own os firewall into it.

keep in mind: "tor does it" is a reason to explicitly be skeptical of adding such functionality to lokinet.
