Summary: X firewall proxy
Description:
The X firewall proxy (xfwp) is an application layer gateway proxy that may be run on a network firewall host to forward X traffic across the firewall. Used in conjunction with the X server Security extension and authorization checking, xfwp constitutes a safe, simple, and reliable mechanism both to hide the addresses of X servers located on the Intranet and to enforce a server connection policy. Xfwp cannot pro- tect against mischief originating on the Intranet; however, when prop- erly configured it can guarantee that only trusted clients originating on authorized external Internet hosts will be allowed inbound access to local X servers.
